I’m not completely sure why there was really even a debate.<\/p>\n

Oh, yeah. The price. The fear of durability. That’s about it.<\/p>\n

As you may recall, I went to Bloggy Boot Camp in October<\/a>. I wanted a netbook or an iPad before I went to take notes. I barely used it for that, of course. I tend to take written notes. It helps me remember better and I don’t really type all that fast. I can’t be completely perfect, so whatever.<\/p>\n

I really wanted to get an iPad but the price tag had me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It wasn’t a deal breaker but I heard reports of them shattering and it’s a first generation device, blah, blah.<\/p>\n

That being said I ended up getting an Asus tablet netbook.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It has sucked. It takes FOREVER to start up. IT takes forever to laod anything. The tablet part is even more brutally slow. It was kind of a waste of money. I think.<\/p>\n

Charlie plans to load linux on it for me and I am going to use it in the kitchen for all my recipes\/food blogs. (If you have one of your own or a favorite be sure to let me know!!!!!!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maybe it wasn’t a total loss. I surely wouldn’t keep an iPad in the kitchen and if I can finally scan and load all my loose recipes onto one nice net device then that will be great.<\/p>\n

I’ll try and remember to update you on how this goes in 6 months (or not because I’ll be having a baby in 6 months.) or a year.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, I need to convince my husband that I need an iPad even though I have an iphone and a perfectly decent laptop.<\/p>\n

This is a semi review on an asus netbook, completely my own idea to review it, not paid or even asked by anyone to do so.<\/em><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
