Default best cheap-ish netbook
What's the best netbook for basic internet/email/possibly word processing usage. Other than that, it just needs good battery life. Just something that my dad can take on business trips. No games or anything like that.

I've heard msi wind are good, but the battery life doesn't seem so great. Any recommendations?
