Hello,

Do you know what booking software you will be using? Certain programs may not be able to run on a netbook.

The price difference between a netbook and an inexpensive laptop is not that much. I would prefer a laptop to a netbook.

I'm not recommend either laptop, I'm just letting know there are inexpensive laptop deals out there if you look.
