Netbooks for Father’s Day
Posted by Tom Greer on June 2, 2009 in Netbook Market, Netbooks, Nettops
If you are looking for a creative gift for Dad on Father’s Day (June 17th), then why not surprise him with a netbook? It’s a gift that he’d be delighted to receive. It’s a gift that he will use often. Plus, it has lasting value. He will remember your gift whenever he uses it.
Our recommendations are grouped in the tabs below. But if you are looking for a distinctive, creative gift, then skip down to the bottom of the page.
If we were forced to select a single netbook, then the Samsung N120 would be our top recommendation. Why? We believe it offers the best value -- meaning you get the best set of features for the money.
The N120 is solidly built and is attractive. It has one of the best netbook keyboards. Battery life is very good. The 10″ display is bright with crisp colors and has good clarity at wide viewing angles.
You can pick one up for Dad for only $399.00

 | 10.2" Display (1024x600), 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 802.11b/g, Bluetooth, 6 Cell Battery, Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition | |
If you are looking for a good quality netbook for a bargain price, then we recommend the Dell Inspiron Mini 10v. At $299, you get a top-quality netbook with a 10″ display and all of the other features typical in a competitive netbook. You simply can’t go wrong with a Mini 10v.
If you want to get this in time for Father’s Day, then you need to order now.

If you miss the window at Dell, or you are looking for another option, then we really like the Acer Aspire One D250. Right now, the Sapphire Blue color is available from a couple of different merchants for less than $300.
The Aspire One D250 is one of the hot new netbooks that just hit the market.
What do we like about it? Love the keyboard. Small, good-looking and lightweight. Plus it has all of the important features in a competitive netbook at a great price.

 | 10.1" Display (1024x600), 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 3-Cell Battery, Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition | |
In the middle price range, there are a lot of options. We like the MSI Wind U123 model with the 9-Cell battery best-of-all.
The U123 is the latest version of the Wind netbook. The 9-Cell battery version provides over 8 hours of real-world battery life. The Wind U123 has a good display and keyboard together with features that compare very nicely to most quality netbooks.

 | 10.2" Display (1024x600), 1.66 GHz Intel Atom N280 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 9-Cell Battery, Bluetooth, Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition | |
In the over $400 group, the Asus Eee PC 1008HA is the best option for Dad. This just-introduced netbook is jumping off shelves everywhere, so you may find it hard to get one before Father’s Day.
The 1008HA is the lastest in a long line of Eee PCs. This model features Asus’s new “seashell” design, which is very thin and light. The keyboard is a welcome step up from the traditional Eee PC keyboard.
The rest of the features are rock solid and what you’d expect from the company that introduced the first commercial netbook.

If money is no object and you are looking for a high-end netbook for Dad, then you’ll want to look at the HP Pavilion dv2.
This system is a screamer compared to most netbooks. It comes with a 12″ display (which makes a big difference). The dv2 has the new AMD Neo processor and an ATI graphics accelerator. Toogether these play HD video and games extremely well.
In addition, the Pavilion dv2 comes with a 320GB hard drive, a DVD drive, 4GB of RAM and lots of other upgraded features.
Dad will love it.

If you are looking for a netbook for Dad and your pocketbook is challenged, then here is a deal that won’t last long.
Compuvest is offering the HP Mini 1010NR for less than $250. HP’s Mini is a very reliable netbook. This model comes with a 16 GB Solid State Drive, so the amount of disk space is very limited. Other than the small disk drive, the 1010NR has a full set of features. This is a great little machine at a super price.

 | 8.9" Display (1024x600), Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz Processor, 512 MB RAM, 8 GB Solid State Drive, 3-Cell Battery, Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition | |
If you a re looking for a really novel gift for Dad, then consider giving him an Asus Eee Top. This is called an “All-in-One” because the computer is built inside the flat panel touchscreen display.
This video shows the features better than I can describe in words. Take a look:
