I don't know a lot about computers, but I was wondering if this was a good deal or not for a netbook? What would be my limitations for using this?

haha - for a netbook it's a dang good deal.

I PM'ed Noen to see if Live Mesh 2011 works on these. If so I'm ordering 2 or 3.

Apparently there are some problems with graphics if you're planning on going hackintosh, but otherwise they're looking stellar.

--They're way easier to add RAM to than the 10v was also.

--They go in and out of stock. If you see the price $247 just refresh it and it will go back to the discounted.

Decent HP available today if you missed out on the Dell.

It's a 12", so more of a 'tweener than a straight netbook; but it has HDMI output and nVidia ION onboard. With a little poking around in the bios you can release the firmware lock on the graphics set for even more power (at the cost of some battery.)

^also a great machine to hackintosh.

Today there are a pair of refurb ASUS UL machines on-sale most likely for their run up to a summer refresh. Check slickdeals.net
