#lazyWeb having just discovered that my netbook has a curved keyboard due to the spicy battery in it, I'm going to be looking for a new *light* laptop. It needs to run Linux, and be powerful enough to code on but small enough to carry easily. A native HDMI port would be nice but not essential #linux #netbook #laptops

Ok, I can’t seem to land on what I want for my writer deck, but this seems to tick all the boxes. The Thinkpad is just too chunky to be easily portable, so I needed something small, light, no distractions, simple and an unbloated OS. This little 10inch ultra portable netbook seems to fit the bill. And for the princely sum of £35 it is now mine. Might need to buy a new battery for it at some stage but it’s not a great deal of money to take a punt on. #WriterDeck #NetBook

@SynAck@corteximplant.com most people I know still keep a #Netbook for that reason. They are small, efficient and can still run some minimalist #Linux and #sync away notes via #git or #rsync over #ssh…

I have been looking for a Sylvania #SmartBook for some time & finally got one! These are such interesting devices. One part 90's H/PC, one part 2000's #PocketPC & thrown into a #NetBook form factor. It's a strange hybrid device of form and function. I can't wait to tinker around with this. Since it runs on ARM and #WindowsCE I have heard there are ways to load pocket PC programs on it, though they may be unoptimized. #PDA #RetroTech #Handheld #HandheldPC
