How about focusing on the design?
“Netbooks” was introduced to the world late in 2007 and since then evolved from tiny laptops with 7″ screen and 2GB SSD to today’s larger newborns that sets standard at 10″ with larger HDD capacity. Some are even larger at 12″. But for a while now, I have not seen significant changes on these power and performance parts except for the battery, which now lasts up to 400% longer than before.

Lately there’s also not much of interesting news on netbooks upgrades. Specially on Asus netbooks, which quite upgrades only the model name. Of course I’m exaggerating. But seriously, I think there’s not much. Also, for a couple of weeks already, the talk-of-the-internet was the new Google Chrome OS for netbooks and how Microsoft feels about it.

What if we suggest netbooks manufacturer to focus more on enhancing the design of their products. And by design, I’m talking about how it looks from the outside; more on cosmetics.
Yes, some of them are working on how to make slimmer netbooks so people can carry it more easily. But I think it’s also not enough. Most netbooks today tends to prioritize the ‘business look and feel’ so how about making netbooks with hundreds of unique cool skin designs to choose from? -artistic, anime, nature, people, etc. At least we don’t have to change it ourselves. I know it doesn’t make much sense but just to be different. HP has been releasing Vivienne Tam Edition netbooks and I think it’s cool. Though the design is so feminine and the price is also higher.

I have not thought of other suggestions yet, so if you think this would make sense, please let me hear comments.
This idea originates from The Moment.
