While I don't have one and my needs are limited for a laptop ( I have a desktop which I do most of my work on, game on), the next laptop I'm going to purchase is an eeepc. Ive been saying for a few years now that laptops are too bulky and include too much fluff (my current laptop has a serial printer port...). Unless you need a ton of power, and the ability to play games, I'd look at the eeepc. Light, very good battery life, no fluff.
