      Nice specs. I just can't deal with the shitty placement of the "." key on the MSIs..bacon's tucked directly below the L for some reason... Hopefully they've addressed that, but I doubt it.

      The HP 1035NR I'm typing on is great...the keyboard is a little flat,though...I feel like I need to trim my nails all the time. Also the screen doesn't open up far enough...kinda drives me nuts at times.

      I just got the Asus 1000HE, fantastic battery life, 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth, webcam, Intel Atom N280 that gives somewhat better graphics and great keyboard. I believe one of the one of the best netbooks out there. Currently $349.99 at Zipzoomfly after rebate. http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=10010057&prodlist=celebros

      I think the 1000HE sports a faster FSB. You can overclock it pretty well if you get 800mhz RAM. Still, most reviews say all the atom based Netbooks are about the same speed. The ones I would stay away from are the Acer models that are limited to 1.5GB RAM. That extra .5GB is worth having so you have plenty of room to disable paging in XP completely.

      One thing I don't like about the 1000HE is the slow HDD. My 900A with super fast runcore SSD was
      Knock Knock.
      Who's there?
      Bacon.
      Bacon who?

      See my post and techsupport's post. I really think the Asus 1000HE is a winner and would highly recommend it.
