Well since this is a "simple" tech blog, I'll break it down to you very easily. These netbooks are going to be the first to offer playable gaming and HD playback to those mini-netbooks that everyone seems to be picking up nowadays. It's the next evolution of netbooks. First it was the atom chip that allowed netbooks even be possible. Now, it's "gameability". However, the ION is not for everyone. It's a waste of money if you're not planning to be playing any games or watching any HD content. Check out the specs for each below.

To control my obsessive gaming behavior in the past (hehe), I have limited myself by having my gaming computer as a notebook. Limited upgradeability, compared to a desktop, so I'm saving a lot of money by not buying a new upgrade every week! But I'm considering selling all the computers I have just to buy one of these... We'll see
