I'm not in the least arguing this. If you read my posts you'll find that I'm saying that each person should use the device they find most appropriate.

In your post, though, you stated a couple of strong reasons why you couldn't use a netbook in the classroom (battery life and start up time) which no longer apply to modern netbooks. Consequently, it was of interest to me, given my argument that there will be a swing back to netbooks, whether this would be true in your case.
