You may know I have an HP Mini which is HP's netbook entry. They are really really great little things, and extremely portable.
I didn't know that actually; how big is the screen?
I struggle with small screens TBH, 10" is about the minimum I could cope with, I think. When I bought the Vaio, I agonised over the move from 15.4" to 14.1" screen but the chance to get a Vaio for 1200 bucks was too good to miss.
One of my fellow students has a HP notebook with an 18" screen, its gorgeous!

Another has a white Eee PC running XP and he swears by it.
It's a 10" screen which is about as small as I could go too. I still mostly use my larger Mac at home, but the Mini is great for when I head away for a night or something. Surprisingly the Intel Atom processor doesn't slow things down too much.

I'd say 15" is about as low as I would go, but I wouldn't go any resoulution lower than WSXGA+ (1680x1050) (even though my current monitor is SXGA)

It's for me.
It's a one week old, unwanted gift. I saved $115 on the new price.
You'll know I've picked it up when my Avatar changes...

Nice! Is it brand new or second hand, and how much did you pay?

I paid $300 instead of $406 -$415 at EI.
I was actually going to get a W980 for $339 at EI but when I saw this sitting at $156 on TradeMe and the seller said the reserve was 300 bucks, I though I'd better grab it!
