NetbookTech

I’m here to announce that I have two new loves in my life (OK. really one new love and one love reaffirmed ok?) We’re not talking about my wife or anything like that.. we’re talking about Virgin America and my trusty Samsung NC10 netbook.

First off – Virgin America rocks. Today is the first time I’m trying out the budget airline and I’m absolutely loving it (aside from the air turbulence along the way to New York City). Outlets underneath the\from the comfort of your airplane seat (OK.. so maybe it’s not all that comfortable but I’ve sat in worse). Seriously, Virgin America is redefining what flying should be like for all of us. 

Secondly, I’ve fallen in love with my Samsung NC10 netbook all over again. First, my trusty netbook survived a four foot fall during security inspections – though luckily it landed cover down as opposed to on an edge. Nevertheless it’s great to know you’ve got a well built netbook in your hands. And finally, I love the NC10’s battery life. Yes there are other netbooks now that beat the NC10 in battery life performance but it goes to show how important it is to have 5+ hours of battery life – especially when you’re on a cross country flight. But then again – when you’re on Virgin America, battery life isn’t as important give the power outlets on board.

The next netbook I’m eyeing – the Toshiba mini NB205 with its awesome 8+ hours of battery life.
