Don't know how hot it is but I'm thinking about picking this up, it seems a little beefier than a comparably priced netbook:

-----

Reviews on the web indicate this as weighing in at 3.8lbs, so it's a little chunky but still extremely portable.

NOTE: This is listed as GRADE B, so it will/may contain minor blemishes and have no more than 5 dead pixels <--- A big turn off but I imagine it won't be as bad as what grade B states, I figure they're just covering themselves to stop whiny customers from expecting perfection...

Quick update:

* This unit has a non-widescreen XGA resolution (1024 × 768), which may be a turn off to some
* Ram is expandable to 2Gb (533mhz DDR2, single channel only)
* Maybe I'm blind but I can't actually find if it includes a battery. The stock 6-cell has been reported to last about 3.5hrs, but the extended 9-cell ($40-60 Ebay) can go to around 7 hours.





 
How are the refurb notebooks from compgeeks? I assume the ones they didn't mark as "grade B, C", etc would be pretty clean?
