Looking for something to take to university and work (word processing, reading pdfs, possibly some light spreadsheets) on when I have a couple of hours off. Will also be used for light browsing at home, possibly hooked up to a monitor, keyboard and mouse.
The eeepc 1001HA can be had for £199, with the downside it only has a 3-cell battery. How long can it be reasonably expected to last? Asus quote 4hrs but I imagine that's an exaggeration. Don't want to go much over £200 new, say £210 max.
Open to second hand too, but would have to be around the £150 mark max for something without a warranty etc.
Thanks for any ideas.
