By fast I mean it should at least be able to run the latest games. I don't need to run large simulations on it or anything. I don't need anything that fast, lol.

They're all pretty good. Of course the more you pay the faster they get, though. Make a balance based on how much you're willing to pay for what speed.

You can't play games on a Netbook. That's not what they're for. Maybe you could scrape by with games made before 2003, but there's no chance you can play 'the latest games' on a Netbook. They're designed for internet access on the go, not gaming. You could splash out and get a gaming laptop, but they're shit and don't play games very well.

Why in the bloody hell would you want to game on a netbook? You might as well try running Crysis on an iPad.

What's the difference between a laptop and a netbook?

Size and power. Netbooks have far less of both.

Netbooks have shittier specs. They're meant for doing simple stuff on the go. The only game I've ever been able to get running on a netbook is the original Half-Life.

Very. Some people call them Notebooks because they resemble notepads in size. I'd say the smallest one I've seen is about 7cm tall, 20cm wide and maybe 1cm thick

Depends if you'd like easy access to the 'net throughout the day. I have one to watch TV shows on when I'm on the bus.

Depends on what you want to do with it.
For games(lol) or heavy workloads, especially with graphics? Bad.
Browsing and light work on the go? Almost perfect.

I generally just browse the net and maybe watch some videos. What makes a heavy workload?

Anything dealing with media conversion or manipulation, I'd think.
Those often need a GPU or higher-end CPU, neither of which netbooks have to be able to keep their inexpensiveness and small profiles.

Standard HD resolution. 1080 pixels high (horizontal rows), progressively scanned (all 1080 lines are drawn every time, as opposed to interlacing, which shows 540 lines that alternate between even and odd, saving bandwidth but destroying eyes).
