ASUS Eee PC 4GB 7″ Mini Notebook Computer with Linux - Galaxy Black Review
This is a great little travel/starter notebook.
Pros: VERY lightweight & portability, good screen visibility, ease of use.
Cons: After several months of use, the battery life decreases, linux can be tricky for someone used to Windows or MacOS.
I have had mine since roughly 05/2008, and will continue to use it for some time. I will be seeking a better replacement battery, though.
