A netbook will probably start and run slower than a desktop, but the real advantage comes in weight and portability.
They are both good. It will depend on your personal need whether you want a laptop or smaller netbook. A netbook will not have a DVD drive and will have less memory storage than a laptop but is more portable.
The netbook and laptop cases vary in size because a netbook is significantly smaller than a laptop. You should definitely check which one your friend has to ensure you get one that is going to fit the size of their computer.
A netbook is a version of a laptop computer. It is smaller than a notebook, sometimes called a regular laptop and is generally less powerful and less expensive.
The smallest laptop on the market is called the Foleo. It is bigger than a smartphone, but smaller than a regular laptop. The Foleo is not considered to be a netbook.
There are many reasons your netbook could be faster than your gaming PC. Your PC could be older, could have viruses, or could be overloaded with stuff.
Netbooks are cheaper than laptops, but if you want quality out of your hardware, look somewhere else. A netbook will usually run your wallet about 3/4 of the price of a laptop but will have significantly lowered specs.
Besides the size, a laptop notebook computer has more functions and capacity than a netbook. You can read more at http://forums.cnet.com/5208-19680_102-0.html?threadID=313546

It depends on what technical specifications you are after. You can buy a mini netbook for around $400AUD which is cheaper than the price of any desktop but has less specificatons. Desktops start at around $700AUD.
Yes, most of the Netbooks are thinner than a Laptop and also portable as well. I am using Intel Atom based Netbook, which is thinner more portable and also it's a lightweight and easy to take anywhere you can enjoy reading ebooks, playing games and many other work that is associated with your nature of job.
It can be, really good phones are sometimes worth more than a netbook/notebook or even a computer
Yes Netbooks have better Battery Life than a Laptop. Recently I'd bought an Intel atom based processors Netbook because it is a great little piece of technology, lightweight and easy to take anywhere, and is much lesser price as compare with Laptop and with a great battery life.
