title="Best Netbooks to Buy" href="http://besthubris.com/computers-internet/buying-netbook-cheap-ones-better/">smartest to buy cheap netbooks</a> due to a wide variety of factors, but mainly because with the hardware specifications limited by Microsoft&#8217;s licensing terms a more expensive netbook is not a better netbook, just a prettier one.</p><p><a
href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/computers/?p=784" target="_blank">John Morris</a> wrote in his blog about the recently launched <a
href="http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2009/07/sony-announces-500-netbook/" target="_blank">Sony Vaio and other &quot;luxury&quot; netbooks</a>.&#160; He basically came to the conclusion that expensive netbooks are not good investments either, although he based his conclusion on the fact that they don&#8217;t sell well&#8211;at Amazon.com at least.</p><p>Still, the point is the same.&#160; If you are going to shell out $600, $700, or a near psychotic $900 for a portable computer, you can buy a laptop with more powerful hardware without giving up very much portability.&#160;</p><p>Besides, if you want to overpay for a computer that looks good, you should really be buying something from Apple, that&#8217;s what they specialize in.</p><p></p><p><a
