I used a netbook to run 10+ amazon accounts. VMWare was a little slow booting up the systems and I definitely couldn't multisystem, but with a little patience it was an awesome choice being highly portable

I was thinking of using netbooks in the same way. I would love to hear more how you accomplish this with the netbook

I also have been using a netbook for the past months with around 10-20 accounts and have had no problems. Its very slow to boot up, but I have the time for it.

I have quite a few thinkpads and owned a netbook once. You'll get a better bang if you take the money and buy a comparably price used nb. The small kb and screen made me give up my netbook to a girl I hate on day 2.

^ Netbooks are fine yeah.

If you are looking on eBay, then try Argos, they sell discounted refurbished products through their eBay shop outlet.

Netbooks are useless when places like Wal-Mart and Fry's Electronics are selling full size laptops for less than $300...

The debate is whether a notebook will be suitable for eBay and the answer is, yes!, the majority will obviously be able to run Windows 7, Firefox etc

I am like a lot of members on here, techy and can't help spending lots on a computer. Spec, spec, spec

But this isn't really relevant to standard computer use when just using eBay etc.

For 10+ amazon accounts, how do you change router MAC? You use dial up?
