For that price range you should consider a netbook.

For that price it's pretty awesome. I don't know why you are being told to buy a netbook since they're around the same price and are much slower.

Like said above, I would keep the Windows 7 on it as Windows 7 will run fantastic on it and there is NO reason to use Windows XP.

considering the battery life on the netbook i wouldnt get it. plus the screen is too small. i had an acer aspire one but i returned it


haha i might keep the windows 7 key but reinstall xp pro sp3. save the 7 key and use it for a later time
