Is the Dell Inspiron Duo a good computer for students?

« on: August 08, 2011, 04:58:48 AM »

I'm 13 an I have been wanting/needing a computer for school and other purposes. My family only has 2 computers, one for my dad and his business, and one for my mom, me, and my sisters to share. It's time for me to get my own computer.
What I plan to do on it is surf the web, post on my blog, work on projects for school, and have my music and photo libraries. I also would like to be able to draw/sketch with an app on the tablet. The problem is, I don't know if this netbook can do the things I need it to. I am aware that there is no CD/DVD optical drive or SD card drive, so I might invest in adapters for both. I already know that I will be buying an external hard drive.
What I need to know is The pros and cons of this tablet netbook and what you know it can do. I prefer to have people who own Inspiron Dous to answer the question.
Thank you for your time!

Get yourself a regular laptop or desktop. I feel netbooks are underpowered and slow.

Considering it's a Dell, no. Dells suck man! Get an Asus netbook or something... I've got mine for portability and school and I can easily get 8 hours of battery life on it and I'm running Ubuntu on there.
