I have recently had the privilege of testing an Acer Netbook. I have to say that I m impressed. It only weighs about 2 pounds, for one thing, and as a student, this is very important. When I take my 15.4" Dell Inspiron to school, if I have to walk any more than a hundred feet, I feel my back whining constantly. "Why are we still walking? You stuffed all this weight onto me just for school?" Looking around to make sure no one is within hearing distance, I say, "Just deal with it, ok! There are no other options!"
But there is another option. People may complain about how much power the Netbook has, but at 1.6 ghz and 1gb of memory, it really can get its job done. Another huge bonus that comes along with this laptop is that it is only about $300 depending on which one is bought, with the larger 10" screen costing closer to $350.
I am extremely tempted to buy one, even though I already have a nice laptop, because it can be taken anywhere so easily. I would use it to write wherever and whenever I wanted to. Other laptops are large and clunky in comparison. If you are looking for a smaller laptop that can get the job done, and all with a great price, the Acer Netbook is for you.
