The company I work for is very much the "FT Demographic" and everyone is giddy for netbooks. Even our hardcore Mac users have been buying Netbooks - mostly HP Mini's. One six figure lawyer has given Netbooks as gifts to everyone she knows.

I originally bought an HP Mini for the office because an employee would be traveling in Latin America and seemed to think that was a good place to tote around her Macbook Pro in a designer handbag.

And since then everyone has been crazy for Netbooks. Mostly the HP Mini, I think a good third of the office has bought HP Mini's. A couple of people even wanted to ditch their regular laptop for a netbook.
