Hey all, so I know this may be kind of an annoying question, but an internet search on this topic didn't turn up anything completely pertinent and I'm kind of lost on this whole topic...
I'm going to be graduating from college in a few months, and money is going to be quite tight. My current Dell laptop (E1505) is dying, and even though I could keep it alive for a few more years it doesn't really fit my needs anymore. I'm thinking of buying a netbook, since portability and battery life are two of my top priorities. I'm thinking of buying the ASUS Eee PC 1000HA (Amazon.com: ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel ATOM N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 10 GB E-Storage, XP Home, 6 Cell Battery): Computer & Accessories) but I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this or any other netbooks, and had some advice to offer. Basically I'm just looking for advice on powerful and portable laptops that could fit into a strict budget. I'll mostly use it for basic browsing and (sadly, in a year or two) academic work, but I also would like something that could handle digital audio workstations, movies, music...that sort of stuff.
If anyone has had any good experiences with this sort of stuff, could you post a quick recommendation? It would be much appreciated.
