Netbook

[indiana_j]

Hey guys - I'm looking at purchasing a netbook soon.  Can anyone tell me what are the best kinds, what I should look for, etc?  I've been squirreling money away and will soon be able to buy one but I'm not sure which brand I should go for.  Eee or Dell or something else?

I got this little beauty after Christmas --

250gb harddrive. Long battery life (7.5 hrs). I upgraded the memory on it so it's 2gb instead of a 1gb. Only thing I don't like is the Windows 7 Starter. Also, it's a Gateway so I'm not big on their IT support so I bought the BestBuy coverage and plan to use the Geek Squad if anything goes wrong.
