For some a netbook may be enough. It will certainly run the things mentioned above quite easily. I think the screen is also too small for every day use, and the lack of "dockability" would kill it for me. All those points have already been mentioned, but some were not important to the OP. So, it could still be a veiable option for him, albeit not for you or me.
Cheers.
