I got a Macbook 12". That's pretty much a premium netbook, and it's fantastic.

It's not a powerhouse, but it handles Docker, Sublime Text and Firefox together just fine. It's absurdly small and light, and perfect for café hopping on a bicycle.

I love notebooks until I have to find something in them.
