If you own a netbook then you know some of the reasons why someone may want to own one for themselves. However, not all people are as easy to convince. Some will listen and eagerly make that their next computer purchase, while others will find reasons why that was not a smart purchase.For those  people who doubt a netbook and the positives about them, you can ask a simple wuestion. Ask them what they use their laptop for most. If they do not use it much for storing data, but rather email, watching dvd’s, surfing the net and things of that nature, then you can point out that is exactly what a netbook is designed to do. The kicker will be when you point out the price difference between the laptop and the netbook.
