Hackers Netbook?
jamess: I have an eeepc, but you couldn't do any serious amount of work on it. I'm not so concerned about the horsepower (if your software is so bloated it doesn't run at speed on an eeepc, which is way faster than my main development machine was only 4-5 years ago, you're doing it wrong.)The main problem is the screen real estate and keyboard size. I just can't type at speed on the eee, I keep hitting all the wrong keys and it gets very frustrating. It's fine for the odd email, but no way could I crank out the code on it. The screen is also too small. My main laptop has a nice widescreen where I typically have 2/3rds IDE and 1/3rd documentation/consoles. Not possible on 7-8" screens.
