Is the HP netbook computer good for watching movies/videos and surfing the net and how does it become wireless?

Q. I am looking for an inexpensive laptop,notebook, or netbook that is under 300 that I can have internet on without wires and I can dowload games, watch movies and videos, what is the best advice?
Is the netbook able to load a CD to install the internet, is a notebook better for playing a CD, surfing the net, watching movies and videos? What the difference between the two?

A. A regular HP Netbook will be able to watch movies and videos just fine, Gaming will not run on a computer under $300, you just can't get a good enough laptop with a good GPU and CPU for gaming under that price. Regular flash games will run fine, if your planning on running some 3D Games like Call Of Duty, it is not going to run at all.

How do you get a free HP netbook from verizon fios?

Q. I need to know how you can be eligible for this free offer and what you can do to get the free laptop.

A. You have to be a new customer and then sign a two year contract. (I believe) Then they will send you a coupon, but it can take up to sixty or ninety days for it to come. Then you have to go to the computer website and put in your coupon code. You still have to pay shipping, handling, and any taxes that there may be.

All in all, not a very good deal considering that you have to sign a two year contract and use their services on the netbook. If you break the contract after you get the netbook, the early termination fee with be about what you'd spend on a netbook anyway.
