Netbooks Are Dead, Baby, Netbooks Are Dead

Full, ultra-light notebook computers prices falling quickly. The arrival of the iPad and other tablets. Underpowered to the point of uselessness. Cramped designs. All reasons for the death of the netbook. So long, netbooks – you won’t be missed. [Fortune]

    It’s hard to believe an allegedly ‘professional’ journalist can present this article without full knowing that the data is being mischieviously used out of context. Fanboy propaganda.

    Hmm, 5% YoY growth indicates netbook sales are still increasing. Penetration rate has remained stable indicating the growth of the market as a whole has slowed. Netbooks aren’t going anywhere yet.

    A very poor summary of a misleading article about some dubious research.
