make sure it qualifies for the windows 7 upgrade. if so, just go with the xp one and upgrade it. save yourself 80 bucks.

Eh, hard drive space isn't all that crucial to me. I have a 500GB external and I don't see myself installing many programs - iTunes/music player, chat client, and maybe a few others. The biggest space "filler" will be if I partition for a dual boot, though I plan on just going all out Ubuntu.
I honestly place more value on the camera MPs than on hard drive size. So, the 1.3 of the PU1X has more pull than the 0.3 of the PU17.
Lastly, Windows 7 Starter doesn't really excite me. If I want to keep my factory OS, I think I would prefer the XP home.
...I guess my mind is pretty well made up, maybe I should just order the thing already

Do you guys think netbooks will come with 2gb RAM pre-installed by the end of the summer? Or atleast, will they be much improved in specs and maybe in price too?
I want a netbook for college and I have the money now, but with the courses I got this semester I don't feel like I would need one now, should I wait? If they're gonna come with 2gb stock at similar prices they're at right now I'm going to wait for sure.

Ya, I thought so at first two, but Asus actually offers different camera models on the different 1005HAs. Unfortunately their site is down at the moment, so I don't really have any proof. I will try to find it once Asus' site is back up.
As for the RAM, I would like to do the 2GB upgrade, assuming I can. I do not know if Asus leaves you a second RAM slot on this model. Though, I am somewhat hesitant to do it while my factory warranty is still good. |

Thats the model I just bought last week. Its awesome!
There is only one Ram slot, and its very easy to get to. The upgrade should take less than 5 minutes |
