I like the portability of them. I currently use an old Dell Latitude laptop myself, but if/when it dies or is relegated to the garage to serve as a computerized lookup for my P-car "how it looked before I took it apart" photos and parts databases and "how-tos" I may look at one for myself. I like being able to do my more processor-intensive type stuff (CAD, Photoshop, Vectorworks, etc.) on the laptop but the reality is I don't do it all that often.

The netbooks lack processing power for that higher end stuff, but are great for web browsing, e-mail, basic wp/spreadsheet stuff which is 90% of what one does these days.

Or maybe I'll just get a kickass laptop and chuck my desktop unit altogether. Dunno yet. Probably 2-3 years off still.
