That\u2019s 2009. You can&#8217;t walk into a consumer electronics store without seeing netbooks everywhere. Actually you can&#8217;t really walk into a consumer electronics store, period, since they\u2019re closing up faster than costume shops the day after Halloween. But that&#8217;s another story for another time.<\/p>\n<p>While traditional netbooks sales will almost certainly see a decline in 2010 as they make way for the new class of low-voltage ultraportables, there\u2019s still plenty to choose from this holiday season. Here\u2019s a handful of purchase-worthy netbooks \u2013 in no particular order &#8212; for your perusal. The only real rule for this list (besides having to be a netbook) is that screen resolution must be greater than 1024&#215;600. Those 1024&#215;600 netbooks are so 2008.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-123739\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div class='postTabsNavigation' style='display:none'><span class='postTabs_nav_next'><a href='http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/2009\/11\/16\/gift-guide-2009-netbooks\/#postTabs_ul_123739' onClick='postTabs_show(1,123739)'>Sony &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='postTabs_divs' id='postTabs_1_123739'>\n<span class='postTabs_titles'><b>Sony<\/b><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline\" title=\"sony\" src=\"http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/sony.jpg\" alt=\"sony\" width=\"620\" height=\"417\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sony VAIO W Series:<\/strong> Starting at $499.99 (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sonystyle.com\/webapp\/wcs\/stores\/servlet\/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=10551&amp;storeId=10151&amp;langId=-1&amp;categoryId=8198552921644650994&amp;parentCategoryId=16154#overview\">SonyStyle.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Although priced a bit higher than its competitors, Sony\u2019s VAIO W line manages to stuff a full-resolution screen into a 10.1-inch form factor while most of the other netbooks on this list are of the 11.6-inch variety.<\/p>\n<p>Features:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Processor: Intel Atom N280 at 1.66GHz<\/li>\n<li>Screen: 10.1 inches at 1366&#215;768 resolution<\/li>\n<li>RAM: 1GB DDR2 SDRAM<\/li>\n<li>Storage: 250GB hard drive (5400RPM SATA)<\/li>\n<li>Networking: Wi-Fi (b\/g\/n), Ethernet, Bluetooth<\/li>\n<li>Operating System: Windows 7 Starter<\/li>\n<li>Ports: 2 USB, VGA out<\/li>\n<li>Battery Life: Up to 7 hours<\/li>\n<li>Dimensions: 10.54\u201d x 7.07\u201d x 2.01\u201d and 2.96 pounds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sonystyle.com\/webapp\/wcs\/stores\/servlet\/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=10551&amp;storeId=10151&amp;langId=-1&amp;categoryId=8198552921644650994&amp;parentCategoryId=16154#overview\">Product Page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><div class='postTabsNavigation' style='display:none'><span class='postTabs_nav_prev'><a href='http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/2009\/11\/16\/gift-guide-2009-netbooks\/#postTabs_ul_123739' onClick='postTabs_show(0,123739)'>&lt;&lt; Intro<\/a><\/span><span class='postTabs_nav_next'><a href='http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/2009\/11\/16\/gift-guide-2009-netbooks\/#postTabs_ul_123739' onClick='postTabs_show(2,123739)'>Gateway &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='postTabs_divs' id='postTabs_2_123739'>\n<span class='postTabs_titles'><b>Gateway<\/b><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline\" title=\"gateway\" src=\"http:\/\/www.crunchgear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/gateway.jpg\" alt=\"gateway\" width=\"620\" height=\"365\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gateway LT3118u:<\/strong> $379.99 (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gateway.com\/systems\/product\/529668349.php\">Gateway.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Looking to buck the trend of Intel-based netbooks, Gateway\u2019s gone with an AMD Athlon processor and ATI Radeon X1270 graphics for a bit more pick-me-up than you\u2019d find in competing offerings.
