Any killer deals on a netbook somewhere? - Overclock.net

Phantez · 07-03-09

I was thinking about getting another cheap computer for the house just to use for internet and whatnot, no gaming (except for stream my game from my desktop) and my brother mentioned he's seen some killer deals on some netbooks for like ~$160ish which seems kind of convenient to have around especially for that price. I've been looking around but i havent found any deals like that yet. Is anyone aware of any deals somewhere around that price?

They also crop up on woot.com for 10-20 bucks less, from time to time. That's where I got mine.

Add a 25 dollar stick of ram and a 50 buck SSD (I went kinda overboard with a 200 dollar SSD) and it's a respectable system.

Edit: http://www.mwave.com/mwave/SKUSearch...iteria=3005317 - this one is worth the extra money if you don't feel like replacing the ram and ssd, or reformatting it to use windows (if you don't find the ASUS linux to your liking).
