OK, so I'm back at it again... You know that it's been too long when you need two attempts at remembering your password.

Christmas is over and done with and I have to say that this was really a good one. I have had the chance to spend a lot of time with my friends and family, nobody was panicking when Christmas was only a few hours away and we

What did you think of the Asus EEE 900? My son has been toying with the idea of getting something along those lines.

The Eee 900 was perfect for this application but if I would get myself one (which I've seriously considered) it would definitely be the Eee 901, it's got the perfect processor, it has all the wireless connectivity you could ever need and its battery life is far superior to the Eees without the Atom processor. However, if it isn't going to be used that much on the road, the 900 is a good option (especially considering the price difference).

Ouch those are pricey! My son is at university and is kind of tired of lugging his 5.2kg laptop all over campus. For him, the problem with the netbooks is the keyboard size. He's a very, VERY big guy with large hands. Ultimately, he needs something with good connectivity and reasonable responsiveness that he can take notes on, do assignments with, and log in to various sites with (not for gaming).

Since he's about to move into an apartment, money is a bit tight. Guess we'll just have to wait a bit longer.

I suppose they are kinda small. If you are looking for one with a slightly better keyboard, HP has got a few decent ones at a similar price point as the 901.

Happy hunting.
