Another vote of 'what a load of bollocks'
Ditto what the majority of posters have written - that's a truly shoddy article.
For the record, the term 'netbook' actually came into being with the Psion product of the same name, circa 1999.
And 'weaktops' is a pathetic term, you may as well complain you can't hammer nails in with a screwdriver, the issue is about fit-for-purpose, and the author seems to be a little confused about what purpose he's writing about...
