Hopefully it will be awesome b/c my wife is in the need of a new laptop and a netbook would be her style. I really want to see how it handles before I buy one though. Gonna be interesting to see what happens with it b/c its running XP and not 7. I would definitely wait until they dual boot with Windows 7.
