I remember saying a few weeks ago that my Mrs was becoming bored with her 17'' HP laptop. She completely surprised me when the 10'' net books became her favoured new toy. Around PC World ,Curry's and the Internet we went eventually settling on an Archo 10' ,1.6 Atom processor, 1gig Ram and a 160 gb hard disk and weighs not a lot at all.It has no CD drive but we load any required programs onto USB memory via our other computers .From ASDA at Reading for £195.
It realy is a little marvel, slips in the wheelchair bag a treat. Plenty of free hotspots in towns ( Wetherspoons always a good bet ,the Mrs likes the coffee and I like the beer). We have the £30 Vodaphone dongle but prefer a free network if nearby. It is great for comparing prices, looking for and booking hotel rooms and wasting time doing things in pubs.I dont consider it a replacement for a Desktop/Laptop but if you like everything in miniature it could be possible with peripherals via the 3 USB ports.
