While I am not familiar with any offers in the 7-to-9-inch range, in the 11 inch bucket there are a couple offers such as this Acer:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.acer.com&#x2F;ac&#x2F;en&#x2F;US&#x2F;content&#x2F;series&#x2F;aspireonecloudbook11" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.acer.com&#x2F;ac&#x2F;en&#x2F;US&#x2F;content&#x2F;series&#x2F;aspireonecloudb...</a><p>HP, Lenovo and Dell have similar offerings for around US$200. I have a slightly older Acer that, while not as small as my AOA150, which my wife used to call my &quot;makeup case&quot;, is still small and cheap (I got it from B&amp;H for about US$160).

But why? Windows netbooks were so slow.<p>Chromebooks are much better alternatives for general Internet use.

Only problem I had with netbooks were the keyboard. My hands are kinda big...
