Here are some of the tips which could help in buying a good mini netbook. Always make sure of your requirements. Analyze your specific needs if you need a bigger screen computer, 7” computer or a mini laptop would do. Think about an average day and what all work you do. Do not buy a netbook if you are looking for a laptop or desktop computer.

Check the battery backup as well. Usually the net books have less powerful microprocessor just to ensure they are fast but they end up having low battery backup.

Try to get a six cell battery for the net book. Although three cells works well but that soon wears off. If you need more run time then going with six well would always prove beneficial. Take care of processor speed as well. Going with a cheap net book which offers less processor speed would never do you good. Imagine working on a super slow, small screen notebook computer.
