Acer Aspire One — 

I got this about a week ago and LOVE it!  In the fall, I got a desktop, but I always regretted not getting a laptop and this is the perfect companion!  I am going to let the kids use the desktop, but I will still have access to it, if I need it, but I do not anticipate needing it.  I can sit in front of the TV in the evenings and have IMDB at my fingertips, as well as use it for facebook, other websites, e-mail and the like.  I also have one that is white, as it was the only one they had left (paid $248 at bricks-and-mortar Wal-Mart).  I had been eyeing one for months now, reading everything I could find about all the options, and I totally think I made the right decision on this.

As a stay-at-home-mom, it is the perfect size for holding recipes and being accessed in the kitchen, as well as holding the kids calendar and being able to keep everything organized for them and for me.

I am on the fence about whether I would be happy with it as my only PC (although I think I might) but as a supplement to others I can use IF I NEED TO, this is an amazing little primary PC for me.

This sounds like a nice little netbook! Although, no optical drive is a huge drawback for me!
