    Speaking of netbooks--- what would you recommend for ...

    watching instructional video tutorials on web development, web design, and small scripting projects? (no hardcore gaming at all.) i am a web designer and need a small 10 or 12 inch netbook to take with me to watch video tutorials, and if need be, execute things I've learned on photoshop...
