You wasted good money then, should have gotten the Asus EEE PC 1201N!
Same degree of bloatware to remove & I had to upgrade to W7 business from the high end W7 home version but well worth the money IMHO over anything else I looked at.

I went out and got a netbook, it's an Asus Eee PC 1005PEB, which I've upgraded to 2GB memory. It has an N450 in it, and, although I expected it to be slow, it's pretty much a dog and Asus had decided that any working area on the screen should be made as small as possible with large menu bars, gadgets, etc. It came with Win7 Starter which brings on the question: I have three options here: Clean up this install, install Win7 Ultimate or install XP. I just don't know if XP will actually be faster. What I'd like to do is be able to play video off the hard drive, not necessarily HD. It just seems to me that the Aspire Revo seems faster. (Yeah, I tried with wired network also). Suggestions? Thanks....Steve
