Get an eee (if you can find one). I've never been so impressed with a piece of kit (and I'm as tech geek as most blokes). It just does what you need it to for 220 quid. It's not a desktop, or for that matter, a laptop replacement. It's just a perfect traveling companion. Stick in an 8gb card and it'll carry all you need. Your music library is on an iPod anyway. Put a few compressed films on it and stop worrying that AVOD is not working yet again. I've put XP on mine (because i had it) and you can do some good things with the desktop....
