Which Netbook do you prefer??

[deveritt]

Thinking about asking for a netbook, or at least cash towards one, this Christmas for university. Seems like they would be ideal to bring to classes. Have been looking into them a lot, but would like some input from others that have one, if they like it and why??

I have been leaning away from the EEE because I think the location of the shift key would drive me insane, but I'm weird like that...

Aspire one, has a perfect sized keyboard and is great with XP home! That is my preference!

I looked at the Asus Eee and Acer Aspire One, I really disliked the touchpad buttons on the Acer (located on the side). The Acer also only has a 3-cell battery which lasts about 2-2.5 hours, whereas some of the Asus Eee PC's have 6-cell batteries which last 5-6 hours. From using both in person, I found the 10" Eee PC to be the best laptop, the 8.9" is just a bit too small.

I have the Asus Eee PC 1000HA.

What about the Lenovo S10? Those look amazing.
