While pricey, It's still a lot cheaper than netbooks made by better known brands. Sometimes a netbook can be better even if a laptop has more features. Try catching a train or other public transport - using a full size laptop while sitting next to somebody else is really difficult, especially if they have one, too! The battery life is just terrific for long commutes on the train, too.
