if it's just for school and notes, just grab a cheaper 6 cell netbook.
acer aspire one a100-1698 got good reviews, and it's $400
only catch is that it's linux, there are ways to install xp via usb though
My sister's use mainly... school, Facebook, etc. I don't like Acers because I've always had a bad experience with them (laptops, desktops etc.) so I'd rather not.

My mom insists on a 10" because she doesn't want my sister to "squint at a tiny screen" and since she's paying she calls the shots. :P

The EEE 1000HA is only $429, might as well.

Looking to get one within the next one or two weeks. My sister can't tell the difference between HDD, SSD and single/dual-core, so it doesn't matter. For me I'll stick with my bigger laptops. The Mini 10 looks interesting, but a bit gimmicky with all the features. If it came with a 9600GT-M GPU I'd be interested.
