Thinking of a netbook? I'd rather buy a litl. Let me explain.
The screen is the most expensive component of a computer. Our screen is better than netbooks. First of all it's larger. Second, our 178 degree viewing cone enables viewing from any angle which is very beneficial at home. Most netbooks have inexpensive screens with narrow viewing cones. Lastly, our screen is much brighter. Some might not need a great screen but if you like to see family photos or video without distortion then you want our screen. litl provides services you don't get with current netbooks. We're maintenance free. You never need to worry about viruses, updates, downloads, plug-ins, security patches, etc. We do that for you for the life of the machine. By self-updating at night your computer is always ready to go. Not important? Well, how about saving hours of time doing tech support for your mother-in-law. Now how much would you pay! ;-) litl provides all server side OS services for free. Most netbooks don't have server side OS services. Server side OS services solve, among other things, the syncing problem. You can link litls and automatically share content. That means photos and channels are available on any litl: in your bedroom, kitchen, on your TV, or in your mom's house across the country. Content is automatically updated and displayed. It also means that you never lose your stuff. If a litl is broken, your current computing state is immediately available on another litl. If it is lost or stolen, we can de-link the machine to safeguard your privacy. Yeah, we don't have hard drives but you'd have to pay me to use one! Hard drives are the number one point of failure in machines and the cause of catastrophic unhappiness. The litl environment solves hard drives (not by backup - that's using a flawed device to backup another flawed device!) by eliminating its need altogether. litl's guarantee is unmatched: two years unconditional. If you are not happy for any reason send the machine back for a replacement or refund. So you can try us out risk-free. So, take your run of the mill netbook, add whatever expense/time you spend doing virus, updating, upgrades, patches, plug-ins, synching, back-up, tech support, and file transfers for the life of the machine. Add in a one year service plan then add some more because we give you an unconditional money back guarantee not an extended warranty*. Add in a killer screen. Then add in the stuff I haven't talked about such as plug-and-play HDMI, awesome channels, and sweet UI. What's that worth? Depends on your situation. But for most home computer needs, $350 netbooks are probably too cheap and $1000 laptops are more than you need. litl, at $699, is just right. jc *Note: Read our complete warranty , as terms have changed since launch.Related posts:
