We recently found that retail salespeople at big box stores like Best Buy and Wal-Mart can be pretty ignorant about netbooks, telling our secret shoppers some misleading information or outright falsehoods. Knowing that Toys R Us also sells netbooks we thought it would be fun to see if their sales people were just as clueless.
Turns out the answer is no. When we visited the Toys R Us flagship in Times Square the two salesmen in the electronics section were helpful, courteous, and very knowledgeable about computers in general and the netbooks on display. Now why is it that Wal-Mart can't hire the same caliber of salesperson?

Netbooks are smaller -- usually 10 inches. some are 9, 11 or 12 inches. They have low-power processors in them and aren't as powerful as regular notebooks, but run Windows and work fine as long as you're not trying to do something advanced like encode video or play Left For Dead 2.
