Unlike Windows Vista, Windows 7 is designed to work on Netbooks and may contribute a good computer feel for users on of low-priced models. While this may be good for consumers, it is not necessarily good for netbook sellers. Netbooks are being trumpeted as secondary computers, not as change computers, which is bad if you're trying to sell something while a recession.

In the beginning, a seven-inch laptop was considered a netbook. Then it became 8.9-inches to 9 inches. Then it became 10 inches. This wouldn't have been a problem, except that quarterly sized laptops are 13 to 14 inches. And it wouldn't be a problem too if it didn't seem like netbooks are growing in sizes.

It was the One Laptop Per Child scheme that gave rise to the netbook market. The scheme was originally intended for children in developing countries. However, Asus made the scheme accessible to commonplace consumers when it offered the first Asus Eee Pc in 2007. The first netbook model had a 7-inch screen, puny chiclet keys, a solid-state memory, and Linux operating ideas instead of Windows.

A lot of things have changed since then, and you can see so many incarnations of the netbook as there are many manufacturers. Dell, Sony, and Hewlett-Packard all have separate takes on the same netbook.

It would seem that only Acer and Asus agree on what a Netbook is. Both seem to define a netbook as a low-power notebook with a 9-inch screen with a price ranging from 0 and 0. For them, netbooks are not meant for much beyond connecting to the Internet and for basic computing functions. Both manufacturers are based in Taiwan and both have captured the lion's share of the netbook store in the United States and Europe. Acer netbooks have done particularly well in Europe.
