Netbooks, entry 6 - Not for Gaming

If you want to play high graphic games then this is not the computer for you. Although there are gamers who’ve tried and some have posted what their results have been. Given the small screen, touchpad, and mouse toggle you’d need a add at least a better mouse for serious gaming. But to me adding accessories defeats the purpose of carrying a netbook. If you can’t travel from home without your favorite high-graphics game then check to see what other players are saying about playing your game on the various netbooks. You may want to go with a regular laptop instead.
