why did we ever abandon netbooks as a form factor

instead we should have made them less terrible by not putting CPUs that can barely calculate what 1+1 is, giving them more RAM, and by not putting windows 7 starter on them
@mjdxp i think they just got replaced by 8"-10" android tablets with keyboard cases
@irina yeah, technically more functional since they don't take forever to do anything, but also a lot less interesting to us nerds
