Coding random shit
so, i was forced to use my mom's netbook for about 2 weeks whilst my laptop was sent in for repairs, in that time my reason's for hating netbook's was strongly re-enforced, whilst i understand that their sole purpose is to be used for internet, even doing things on the internet seemed like a hassle, the smaller screen really made alot of sites appear squashed, playing/doing anything flash related usually required me to scroll up/down the window in order to fit the flash content perfectly onto the screen
attempting to do anything in conjunction was also a pain, usually ending up in freezing the pc for several seconds, also, i'm not certain why, but when trying to figure out what was the cause, it seemed that windows task manager reported explorer.exe to be consuming alot of cycles when i was attempting to do some file browsing, and at times, the explorer crashed on me, I'm certain i didn't acquire any viruses(doing the same stuff i am on my laptop, so nothing new)
my mom's netbooks spec's:
HP mini
OS - windows 7 starter(unbelievable that m$ even put out that POS)
cpu - 1.6xghz(don't remeber the last number) single core intel atom
ram - 1GB ddr2
i couldn't change the os otherwise my mom would have bitched about it, but anyone else have an opinion on netbook's, and your experiance?
