>Netbooks didn't get screwed up

Oh they did. Every new generation of netbooks was actually worse than the previous one (I don't even know how that was possible, but it happened).

Hard disk space converged on 320GB, RAM on 1/2GB, display size was never seemingly available greater than 1024x768 and battery plateaued at ~5 hours.

I adored my first netbook. My second was blah. By the third I was starting to think everybody in the PC market was certifiably insane. What on earth made them think they should release computers that get worse year on year???
