    Do you actually want a Netbook? The small screen might become an annoyance.

    6 hour battery life

    Thanks.

    With Quidco it would be roughly £180 at Staples. I'll have a look round for a code as well.

    It's generally one or the other; code or Quidco. But you might strike it lucky.

    I dont think they do much in the way of codes anyways. All I can find is one for a free inflatable beer bucket. :rotfl:

    I'm sorry for all the questions, but are these worth the money;

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=393883

    Theres a code for £10 off a £150 spend or £15 off a £200 spend and quidco so would push the price down abit.

    Any thoughts?

    Cheers, it looks good.

    Was hoping to pay on credit card and pay half off this month and half next month though. But I might wait abit and get that, they have plenty left.

    Yes, keep an eye on the website. A few other bargains might pop up. Look for price drops in the MSI WIND U130 or the SAMSUNG N130.
