hi mycat, can't really help you but didn't want you to go unanswered.

I started a thread the other day on the same subject..I've just ordered a Acer Aspire One 751 netbook from Amazon.co.uk Warehouse Deals.

In fact, I've just checked the order and it hasn't despatched yet, which worries me a bit. I see it's no longer available on the sale page...which either means I've bought the last one Grin...or I'm going to get an email telling me the order's cancelled Sad.

Never bought from Warehouse deals before but have used Amazon loads.
Never used Ebay. Hope you find something.

I have an Acer Aspire 1 which I like. With netbooks you don't get a CD/DVD drive although you can get external ones but that doesn't bother me. I have had it nearly two years now and still find the battery life pretty good plus it is a good size to take around with me.

I have a Samsung netbook - very happy with it although I upgraded the RAM from 1Gb to 2Gb - its very fast.
