Has it always been like this? I have an ASUS netbook with 2G RAM, and it's actually quite fast. I mostly use it for internet and the occasional work, and it performs quite well. Heck, I even have Eclipse, Tomcat, SQL Server installed and running on the thing, for the occasion that I need to do something quickly and can't get to my laptop, and it runs all these things without any problems.

The thing c-r-a-w-l-s. It is so slow I could do my workout
routine in the time it takes to accomplish any activity on the internet.

So, is there a decent, FAST netbook? Or is "fast" and "netbook" mutually
exclusive?

My intentions are fairly simple. Word processing, basic internet searching, and reading some email. Perhaps an occasional powerpoint presentation.

I appreciate all the input.

TIA
