Hey all, for those of you that live in USA and are familar with Walmart, Target, Sams Club, Kmart, Staples, and Office Max; I need advice on getting a cheap but decent netbook from one of them. The OS doesn't matter, office is not needed nor is an optical drive, the screen only needs to be 7inches or more and the hdd 16gb or more ram can be 128mb. I am thinking acer but not sure about them. All it is going to be used for is to check email, surf the net (no downloading or video watching), and typing txt files, and playing solitaire/mahjong. Can anyone tell me a decent brand and what I should expect to pay for something like this? Thanks.

If it's just for web browsing like that, any netbook will work, really. Which ones you can find at your stores depends on your stores, so we can't really check it out for you.

    Opening switch games smells really nostalgic though. Dunno if it's the type of plastic they use.

    @Skelletonike, The cartridges don't taste as bad. Least it doesn't contain poison.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Yeah, what I meant was the smell of the inside of the box itself.
