    Hi im looking for a netbook.. cheap and cheerful.

    I only want to use it for internet and possibly watching movies. I have a dell laptop at the minute and i like the lay out and have never had any bother with it but its a pain to carry around.

    So i was considering buying the Dell laptop mini

    Also saw the Asus in argos for €239.00 .. Asus 1001HA 10in Netbook

    Or Compaq mini 110c - 1110sd - Atom N270 / 1.6 GHz

    Does anybody have any advice?
    Cheers

    they are extremely slow, cant handle many tasks at once.
    if you are used to reasonable speed dont bother with them!

    ^^^ I agree, they are handy but very underpowered, can be torture at times...mine is the " newer " N450 with 2GB ram and gets bogged down very easily.
