I for one am looking to buy a new mini laptop computer by the end of this year, as I gave up my laptop for a more powerful desktop and now lack a portable computer that I could easily carry around with me when needed. And since I need autonomy and not necessarily power and special features, I’m probably going towards a new netbook, perhaps one of those 11.6 inchers, as I consider those offer a good deals between size, weight and ergonomics (as in: they are not so small so you can’t comfortably work with them for at lest a couple of hours).
