Industry analyst seem to think that netbook growth will slow as standard notebooks get smaller, less expensive. It seems like a no-brainer, I can’t think of anyone that would choose a netbook over a more powerful notebook of roughly the same size and price. Can you?
"The big surprise over the past couple years has been the emergence of Netbooks. However we believe regular notebooks will likely outpace the growth in Netbooks in 2010," according to a research note from Avian published Monday. "For 2010 we expect regular notebooks to grow to 180+MM (million) from 140MM in 2009, with Netbooks growing to 47MM from 37MM," Avian said.
