I have a Dell Latitude 1200 I bought for working at remote sites. Worked quite well, just could not get used to the size of the screen. Here are the specs:

I like this much more.

I've worked with Netbooks from Dell, Acer, MSI, Lenovo and HP and have come to the conclusion: they all suck. I'd much prefer a lower end notebook with a 12-14" screen, higher resolution than X x 600, built-in CD drive, and normal keyboard for my fat fingers. That said, my wife loves her "cute" red Dell mini that almost fits in her purse. Roger Wright ___ When it's GOOD there ain't nothin' like it, and when it's BAD there ain't nothin' like it!

I'm considering the purchase of one as my mobile troubleshooting workstation, such as IP-Camera configuration, Network Device configuration (over local serial port), etc. Here's my questions: I don't think I'll be needing much CPU power, but I'm curious if anybody noticed a speciffic level of processor that "is too slow" or "start to feel functional." For example, will an old N230 work without unbearable sluggishness? What about the AMD Neo's? I plan on running Windows 7. Second, I'm weary of the 1024x600 screens that come on most netbooks. the 10" screen physical size isn't a problem, but do you often run out of screen real-estate with such a resolution? Maybe this one is in my head. If so, let me know. I know that you can pay extra for a 1366x768 screen, but those usually get the netbook near the $500 mark... which is what a cheap Notebook costs. Last, I dislike the Acer's "flat keyboard". Any other brands have this style of keys? I want a little definition between the keys for myself, and would not want to end up with this.
