Acer Aspire One AO751h - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=LT-143-AC&groupid=959&catid=1827&subcat=

Was looking at this, and i wondered if this would be good to use with Microsoft Word and Excel frequently and frequent web browsing?

Please, If somone knows a better netbook for around £200-£220 please comment below, cheers.

Looked at the Asus Eee PC 1001p and it looks the best choice, however i am stuck between that and the Dell mini 1012 with the 6 cell battery as a lot of reviews show the Dell mini 1012 is very good as it comes with the 6 cell, and OcUK sell it in black with the 6 cell which is very handy.

ye, some people said it might get a bit hotter because its fanless, but i do think i might go with the asus 1001p, it looks really good, decent speeds, 1gb ram and can be upgraded i think so that might be an option when i actually buy one in around 4-6 weeks time.

Most netbooks are pretty much the same under the hood anyway, so buying one or another won't make a huge difference.

Well the AO751 has only a 1.22ghz processor compared with the dell and the AO531 which have the 1.66ghz processor i believe.
