As a webmaster, the majority of your day is spent in front of a computer. Although there is no substitute for a twenty-four or thirty inch monitor (or even better, multiple monitors), there are times when you simply can’t be in front of your desktop. However, as every webmaster knows, just because you aren’t in front of your desktop doesn’t mean that issues won’t arise that require your immediate attention.
To ensure that you can always take care of any issues or problems that may arise with your web sites (regardless of where you are), we have compiled a list of the top five netbooks for webmasters. Netbooks are ultra-portable laptops, which means that you can literally take them with you anywhere that you go.
- Dell Inspiron Mini 9n: While Dell isn’t known for making exciting products that push the envelope, there is good reason that the Inspiron Mini 9n is at the top of our list. Available for as little as $279, this nine inch netbook is not only incredibly easy to take with you, but it also has enough power to help you keep an eye on your web sites. While you aren’t going to want to run an application like Photoshop on this netbook, you will have no problem getting online, sending emails or accessing the admin areas of your web sites.
- HP Mini 1000: Thanks to its reasonable price point (as low as $299) and great keyboard, the Mini 1000 found its way to the number two spot on our list. With the increased speed that is given to it by the Intel Atom processor, you won’t have to worry about sacrificing speed for its compact size. And if you find that a lot of your webmaster duties involve typing, you will be very thankful for its keyboard (which is larger than most of the keyboards found on other netbooks).
- Asus N10J: While the N10J is going to cost you at least twice what the first two netbooks on our list will, if you need an ultra-portable device with some serious power, this is the netbook for you. Although getting online and sending emails may be all some webmasters need to do, if you have to use programs that are more resource intensive, you will be happy that you invested in a device that can handle your expanded needs with ease.
- HP Mini 2140: An upgraded version of the second netbook on our list, this is once again a great choice for the webmaster who needs some additional power to complete their required duties on the go.
- Sony Vaio TT: This netbook would probably be number one on the list if we were going by performance and range of features alone. However, since not every webmaster wants to spend a huge chunk of money on a portable device like a netbook, we felt it was best to put this in the number five spot (because leaving it off the list because of its price would have been unfair). So, if price isn’t an issue and you are looking for a fully featured netbook (including a Blu-ray drive), then this is probably the ultra portable webmaster solution for you.
