你用的是臺(tái)式機(jī)還是筆記本？哦，不。這個(gè)問(wèn)題已經(jīng)有點(diǎn)過(guò)時(shí)了。現(xiàn)在很多人問(wèn)的是：“你買的是什么上網(wǎng)本？”對(duì)，那些厚重的，看似專業(yè)IT的筆記本已經(jīng)不流行了。眼下，輕便、小巧又價(jià)廉的netbook才是新寵呢。
Netbooks (also called mini notebooks or subnotebooks) are a rapidly evolving category of small, light and inexpensive laptop computers suited for general computing and accessing web-based applications.
上網(wǎng)本（netbook，也叫mini notebook或subnotebook）是一種正在快速發(fā)展的小型、輕便且價(jià)格較低的筆記本電腦，主要用于普通運(yùn)算以及網(wǎng)絡(luò)應(yīng)用。
At their inception in late 2007 — as smaller notebooks optimized for low weight and low cost— netbooks omitted key features (e.g., the optical drive), featured smaller screens and keyboards, and offered reduced specification and computing power.
在2007年剛推出的時(shí)候，上網(wǎng)本被定位為低重量、低成本的小型筆記本電腦，制作時(shí)省去了光驅(qū)等重要部件，屏幕和鍵盤也相應(yīng)縮小，同時(shí)在規(guī)格和運(yùn)算能力上也有所降低。
In the short period since their appearance, netbooks have grown in size and features. By mid 2009, the specs are so similar that the average shopper would likely be confused as to why one is better than the other.
面世后不久，上網(wǎng)本已經(jīng)在尺寸和特性上有了很大改進(jìn)。到2009年中期的時(shí)候，上網(wǎng)本的規(guī)格已經(jīng)和普通筆記本電腦很相近，普通消費(fèi)者可能都無(wú)法辨別差異。
