A netbook makes a fine travel notebook to check up on e-mail, find night life destinations on Google maps, and tap out a few quick journal entries, but for heavy lifting, Intel's Atom...

Amazing machine
full fledged laptop power with almost netbook portability
Amazingly fast after changing to full power setting (comes with balanced setting), fast wireless access to my N router anywhere in my apartment, excellent screen and amazing sound system for such small speakers, cool to touch top and bottom, long battery...
camera is low resolution and pretty slow, but for portable it gets a passing grade
