I agree for what the OP does a netbook would be great.

however as much of a pc fanboy I am, have to disagree with all these people linking Core i7 laptops.

The most VALUABLE component to any laptop is BATTERY LIFE, that asus would be like 2hours of battery.

The macbooks have pretty good batteries that will last 7+ hours, that don't protrude out of the chassis. Very few PC's can match that, which is why netbooks are so great.

PORTABLE + BATTERY LIFE = GREAT NOTEBOOK (netbooks (culv or atom) and macbooks both offer this in spades)

gaming and performance "notebooks" are utterly useless for what their meant to be which is portable.
