Presently, I have two netbooks though I will be selling the 1005hap soon. The only difference between the 1005hap and the 1005PE is a different processor, a larger hard drive and the latter computer runs Windows 7. Windows 7 boots up slower and I still haven't found an email client that I like, but since XP is going to disappear, I will learn to prosper with windows 7.
The insert key works well on both netbooks.

In your case, you can only have two other aps running at the same time, since Window Eyes makes one app already running. I would strongly recommend the Asus EEE PC 1005HA-PU1X. It comes in either black or blue from Amazon. This netbook has Windows XP Home, 1 GB of RAM, 160 GB hard drive, and best of all, 10.5 hours of battery life! If I could get away from plugging the netbook in all the time to recharge the battery, this would be close to what I wish for. I've ordered this machine, and am awaiting shipment. I've used an Asus EEE PC 904HA, and that netbook did not have any problems running a demo of Window Eyes on it. I'm sure this new netbook I ordered will not either.

I notice that some of them now come with something referred to as Windows 7 starter. I'm not certain what this means and am asking whether WindowEyes work well with this. Also has anyone found a netbook that does not perform well with WindowEyes? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
