I had to check wether this was Amiga.org or OldDuffers.org, it's funny how fans of a computer that changed the world 25 years ago now piss and moan about tablets, the most transformative innovation in the computer world in the last two decades.

Wake up and smell the coffee, if there even is a netbook market in 2015 it'll be lumped in the "other" category as statistically irrelevant.

@commodorejohn

What makes you a better predictor of the future than current sales figures?  You are here on a board asking about a 20 year old computer that has around 5,000 users scattered across 4 camps, how do your tastes in anyway reflect the tastes of the general population?

It easy to fantasise the tablet away, I was in an Amiga user group meeting on the day Windows 95 premiered, when the presenter spent half his talk fantasising Windows 95 away.  That worked well.

Early PC users looked down their noses at this childish rodent thing called a "mouse."  Who in the world would ever use one of those?

Simplicity is the reason tablets sell well, no mouse, no keyboard, no fancy gui, just you and your fingers and an app.

The netbook was just made up to steal some thunder from MOS which was about to be released to run on Mac PPC laptops.  I doubt it was ever a real product.

For USD 25 they qive you access to high quality versions of your 10s of thousands of pirated mp3s.  Not a bad deal.

So here it is,almost 2013, netbooks in general have become an endangered species and the OS 4 netbook is slightly less real than a unicorn.

Did it ever exist?
