Evaluating the Role of Netbook Computers

Overview:

Netbook computers are all the rage right now and for good reason. As the most recent evolution of the ultraportable computer platform, these super cheap, super portable, and super basic devices are now being evaluated by many enterprise IT professionals as a potential replacement for more expensive laptop computers. In reality, netbooks almost certainly have a place in an overall enterprise mobility platform, mostly as an extension of full-featured desktop and laptop computers, but their use is primarily limited to busy executives and hard-charging travelers who simply need to extend their workday - and therefore their productivity -- with a more portable solution for email and Web applications. The real question from an IT perspective is determining exactly how to integrate, manage, and support netbooks within the context of a more complete enterprise computing environment that still requires the use of more robust desktops, laptops, and other types of computing devices.
