Windows 7 usually goes to netbook like Acer A1410(timeline). when it goes on sale, it's about $400. I got mine at $350 when staples put on sale with stacking of coupons.

to install new windows, u need external usb cd/dvd drive or a flash drive made with bootable iso. i found usb drive much easier than creating a bootable iso, so never bother.

Thanks ECSW for the quick reply.

I did a little bit of research and thinking bout getting the Asus 1005 HA netbook.

I know there are a few versions out there - looks like BB/FS currently has the 6 cell battery with 8.5hrs of life at $329 - not too shabby.

Has anyone used this netbook and how does it compare to others?
