I'm with roastpuff here. Get a decent netbook and pocket the rest of the cash or spend it on something else like a new phone.
Doesn't seem like you'll be using the computer for anything super intensive so a netbook should do just fine. The new GN chipset (or Ion chipset) should be coming out soon which supposedly has better hardware video decoding. Not sure if it will be out by the time your reach HK, but something to consider if you're not in a hurry to buy.
