MiniPC – the Mini 9 and others

I was tempted by Dell’s new Mini 9, the Asus Eee PC and others. They’re small, which is a plus, and well they do look darn handy. They do have a certain new and hip appeal but after looking around on the net, I realized you could by a lease-return (a laptop which has been leased by a company for one to two years and then returned) Dell on e-Bay that has more features and more practicality for less money. If you’re thinking “Hey, but I’d rather spend more to be hip”, well then you go nuts and I’ll keep the cash.
