Difference between Netbook and Notebook
1. Size - One of the primary differences between netbooks and notebooks is their size. Netbooks are generally 12 inches or smaller, while notebooks are typically much larger.
2. Power - The smaller size of netbooks comes at a price. Netbooks are underpowered compared to full featured notebooks, when it comes to things such as processor speeds and graphics cards. This makes netbooks less than ideal for processor intensive tasks such as image editing or playing the latest 3D games, and even simple tasks may seem slower on a netbook.
3. Capacity - Another area in which netbooks don’t quite stack up to compared to larger notebooks is storage capacity. Many netbooks use solid state drives, which are ultra energy efficient and resistant to impact (which makes them ideal for portables), but do not have as much capacity as regular hard drives.
4. Price - The one area where netbooks excel in is price. Most netbooks sell for less than $600 US dollars, and some can be found for as low as $300.

Let me answer this.goyal420I mean why we use..net book and notebook...??
Netbooks are used for light computing i.e. browsing the internet, playing music, videos, (may be) programming purposes, etc.
Notebooks are used for regular computing like editing videos, playing videos, etc.
Notebooks are faster than netbooks. You cannot perform processor eating tasks on the netbooks. A netbook, as the name suggests is meant for browsing the internet. Although they are perfect for people on the go. -
Manish Goyalstill confused...can you give any example...or it is simply a term to refer this

gaurav.bhorkarWhy would be a netbook or notebook be referred to a software.
Be it a notebook, netbook, toughbook, or a macbook, all are basically laptops. They have different names because of their applications. -
Manish Goyalthanks gaurav ..ie what i want to know?

sarveshguptasorry for the late reply goyal
@gaurav: thanks for the reply
As gaurav said notebook and netbooks are different versions of laptops. This means that this is like cornetto and chocobar are two different chocolate ice-creams from Kwality Walls
they intend to target different segment of consumers and so satisfy different needs
they were actually came into existence to introduce lighter versions of laptops that can be suited to those people who use their laptops for selective purposes only and doesn't need the heavyweight big clumsy laptops that carry a whole lot more of world than them and that with a very less price than its ancestors and peers
that is why notebook was named as for it symbolises a notebook in size and usage you would use in a college for just keeping down the written
and netbook was probably named as it was meant to be a very light laptop for browsing internet and light applications like office,etc
so they were named as per their usability not refer or relate to anything specific computer world product
Hope I am right! 😁 -
