The netbook is not necessarily better or worse than a laptop because, although they are used in a similar way, each device has its strong points and weak points. If you are needing portability and speed of checking internet and email as well as a little word processing or similar tasks the netbook may be the right answer for those needs. They are generally ultra-portable and light and have good battery life with just the right amount of processor power for simple tasks.
