They are good for browsing the net and checking e mail. Thats about it.

Dont do that to yourself. Seriously, a netbook as your primary computer for college? No CD Rom. No way to install productivity suites. Terribly slow atom processor. Low Screen resolutions. They are ok as a portable second computer for internet and email, but that is ALL they are good for. You will seriously regret your purchase. Dont let the low price lure you in. You get what you pay for in life.

I say third. by the features. but if you are going to college i would not recommend a netbook they are small but are just made for surfing the web. They have a very slow processor and don't have more memory than an ipod. i would buy a basic laptop with windows 7 not vista.
