I believe Kickerstarter was talking about the netbooks on the market now is way overpriced. If he meant this, I completely agree. One of my friends has been thinking for a netbook for months. And I have been spending hours to find him a "good" one. But I think they just don't worth that much. At first when Asus had their first netbook years ago, the entry model was round $200. But now, most of the "new" entry model is asking for at least $300; and it would easily go up to $500+ for few other items/features. It is a price range of a notebook that runs SU9300/9400 CPU. I bought my girlfriend a Samsung X360 from eBay 3 months; it cost me ~$700 after BCB. Ok, compare apple-to-appkle, now Acer has a new model named Timeline and go compare with it. The 13.3" model comes with 1366/768 LCD, build-in webcam, and everything you see in a netbook; for around $500 dollar. And the battery runs close to 8 hours, they claim. Then why do people want to pay almost the same price, ok, maybe $100 fewer, for something that is much less powerful? With about the same weight and size, compare with 2M L2 cache in U9300 vs 512k in Atom; compare the max amount of RAM you can put; compare the GPU power (I know, they both sxxk); compare the Wi-Fi & Wi-Max capability; compare the speed of the LAN card... bluetooth... oh, did I mention to you the limitations from Microsoft Windows 7 putting on the netbook? So, my concludion to my friend is to go for a light & low-end laptop. It worth the extra $100. And that why, I agree with kickerstarter. Netbook is in average overpriced nowadays.
That's right. I see decently configured laptop in the $300-400 price range all the time. They all comes with a DVD writer, 15+" screen, 160GB+ HDD, webcam. Usually Windows 7 Premium. Sometimes a good GPU and HDMI output. Sure, they weight twice as much. But these netbooks aren't really MacBook Air. They are build from cheap components. Netbooks should be in the $200 price range.

I got the Acer Aspire One AOD250-1165 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - 3+ Hour Battery Life with auto off Amazon with Promotion Applied of -$5.00 so it only was $224. Those above with the Windows 7 Starter are the same thing but cost $52 bucks more and are over priced!

I can get Windows 7 on there no problem! Batteries for these netbooks are cheap now less than $60. If I really need it? The deal is now I got Amazon to knock off $20 bucks using the above codes so now $204 I will be charged no tax.
