Don't do it! I bought a Asus Eee PC netbook when I went to Africa. I bought it just to dump photos on, write papers/research, and so my full size laptop would not get ruined or stolen. The netbook is nice because it is small and lightweight., but I have had lots of problems with my Asus Eee PC. It is VERY VERY slow and yet I have hardly any programs on the computer. Asus also came with preinstalled settings that I cant seem to change. In my opinion not worth it. Next computer I get will be a Ipad.
