11.6" thin client

[Cheetah Designs]

I want the lightest, smallest, cheapest ~11.6" laptop to use as a thin client to RD into my iMac.

What do you recommend?

At a guess, Chromebook + https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&r...uDjTteKZQK7QRCwTCs9Mg&bvm=bv.1355325884,d.d2k ?

Looks good....would this be fast enough?

I would want my limiting speed factor to be my internet connection, not the laptop itself.

It's VNC, not rocket science... You could always get yourself an Asus Transformer and snag "Jump" - it's what I use, and it's flawless right click and everything. (I use it for work, ditched my iPad to get this)

I am weary of the Chrome plugin though - I personally haven't used it, nor a Chromebook... But they do look sleak... But it's cheap, thin, light, and has a remote desktop client.

...also they're in the early stages of getting hax0r'd up to allow Ubuntu to run on them.

That is exactly what I do on my Asus Infinity
