Similar to a chromebook but it clearly runs a special version of windows called windows CE or Embedded versions. and the best part, it's cheaper than a chromebook in some places, but because of its rarity, it's expensive now.

The difference:

Chromebooks only have google play and chrome and cannot let u install any windows apps.

Netbooks have ie explorer and can let you install windows applications with more features but is slow like a chromebook (basically better tho cuz of features)

thats pretty much the info u basically need. need i say more? just google it if u want to know more.
me: omg this chromebook cant install windows apps???
person 1: yea, what do you expect? it's a chromebook.
me: at this point, i'd rather use a Windows Netbook since it has more features man.
person 1: that's true...
