This machine really gets into that "more than a netbook, less than a notebook" niche - it gives you your 1280x800 display and reasonable graphics, plus a DVD drive, still only 4 lbs. and is full fledged Vista/7 capable...but battery life is listed at 3.5 hours (ick) and you're right, it's a weak processor.

I really wanted to buy that one - it was actually $549 at Office Depot a few weeks ago, but that CPU is just not good enough for the price. RAM and HDD don't matter much to me, as long as I get >1GB and no lame SSD.
