A news roundup service that presents the most interesting and informative articles from the netbook world each and every fortnight.
I read a fair amount each week about newly released netbooks, operating systems, reports from the latest computer shows, unboxings, reviews and other innovations in this fast paced and always changing market.
In amongst all of this there are many articles that I thought would be of interest to the readers of this blog so I do hope that you find something useful.
This fortnight’s netbook news roundup is below and, as always, I would appreciate any comments you care to give.
1. September 12th – How Would You Change The Netbook As We Know It?
Everybody is getting bored of the same spec in every newly released netbook. If you could change the netbook then what would you do? The article on Engadget has gained almost 250 comments so far with some interesting suggestions.
2. September 11th – Netbook OSes: Which will rule the enterprise?
Computerworld discusses which Netbook operating system will be taken up by the enterprise amongst the prime candidates of Windows, Chrome OS, Linux and Cloud computing where the actual operating system does not really matter.

Another Computerworld article, this time reviewing the newly released Facebook Lite and why it is so good for netbooks and other mobile devices.
4. September 2nd – Netbook Shipments Outpace Notebooks
Article from ITPro demonstrating how the netbooks share of the market is growing.
5. August 31st – How to create a bootable Windows Vista and Windows 7 USB
Quick and easy to read how-to on installing Windows 7 from a USB flash drive. Very useful for netbook users where you don’t have a CD-ROM drive.
6. August 30th – The Move to Linux – Netbook Remix
This article takes a little while to get going because there is a bit of history lesson to begin with but once onto installing linux off a USB drive onto a netbook using the Ubuntu Netbook Remix distribution it gets a lot more interesting.
So that is it this time around, please let me have any feedback or comments and I will respond to you. Thanks for reading.
