@mjdxp@labyrinth.zone china is bringing them back! i've had a chuwi minibook x for about a year now and it fills the same niche as the original netbooks did only difference is, the n150 cpu is way more capable than the atom-based cpus, and it has a decent amount of ram and storage it took a bit of tweaking to get everything working on linux (there's a guide to getting it working) but it's been awesome since then https://boingboing.net/2025/03/10/chuwis-minibook-x-n150-is-a-great-and-inexpensive-little-laptop.html
