"One hot tech product I know of - Netbooks. I bought one. Should get here tomorrow."

Which one?

Netbooks are a great product niche. But, they use low margin silicon for processors and chipsets. Nice additional business, but if your high margin stuff is being impacted, not a life saver.

I never understood why netbooks didn't take off earlier. The original netbook was a real nice machine in its day.
