If I were buying a laptop right now, this would be what I would purchase:

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=11987993
Acer 11.6" Aspire One AO751h-1211 Netbook - $379.00

250GB hard drive and 2 GB or ram?  Not sure how this is a netbook, but 
I'll take it ;)  I'm rocking a Acer Aspire Gemstone thats almost two years 
old.  Not a single problem with it.  Love my Acer.
