The page lists the top netbook brands like ASUS, Acer, and HP, then with one click you get a full list of available models. They also have an area for new arrivals, sales, bestsellers, and discussion boards. While it probably won’t appeal to the seasoned netbook consumer who knows what he wants, it is a pretty efficient way of centralizing listings for someone who isn’t quite as netbook savvy.

On the “Most-Wished-For Products” list, the Acer Aspire One 8.9-inch Netbook in sapphire blue listed first in the “Computers” category.

And on the “Most Popular Gift Products” list… the exact same machine ranked first, also in the “Computers” category!

So apparently, a lot of people dig this…

… and who can blame them?

Seven of the top ten spots were taken by netbooks, with Asustek’s Eee PC 8.9-inch netbooks taking the two top spots, but only after a fierce challenge from Acer’s Aspire One 8.9-inch model.

With the economy struggling and people more conscious of spending this season, netbooks are more than ever offering a good, cheaper alternative to the pricier laptops and desktops we all know and love.
