I am unable to resist the need for a netbook any longer.

I would prefer a budget of £150-200.

It will be running a distro of choice (I'd like to see how F10 runs on it).

I was very impressed by a friend's HP 1000 but I don't want to stretch that far that really. Build quality/looks is important to me aswell as a good resolution.

Not too worried about external output resolution / connections.

Would probably prefer a spindle drive over an SSD due to cost / storage size.
 
Acer Aspire One? Around £180 now I think for 512MB RAM, 120GB hard drive, Linpus Linux. I've got the 8GB SSD version and it is great and I would recommend it!
 
What are people's thoughts on the HP Mini 2133 ? They seem to be quite cheap now (£180 incl vat)

VIA C7-M ULV 1.2 GHz Processor with 128 KB L2 Cache

8.9 inch TFT Display

120 GB (5400rpm) Serial ATA HArd Drive

1024 MB DDR2 SODIMM Memory

Intel Wireless LAN 802.11b/g Mini-PCI Card
VIA Chrome9 (1280 x 768) WXGA Graphics
92% full-sized keyboard


Guess the downside is the processor.
