I have an earlier ACER netbook with a smaller screen which runs winxp.
The thing is amazing.  It is a dual core machine  It runs everything I 
tried..  The HD screen does present some problems.  One may definitely 
need glasses if over 40.

The only problem I had was with the built in webcam.  I could not get 
another USB camera to ever work.  I even tried disabling it by 
disconnecting the wires to it.  No luck.   Hopefully this is solved in 
WIN7.  The other gotcha is that replacing a hard disk is a really chore 
as explained to me by someone who had to do it.

It is really convenient to take on trips.
