I am looking at purchasing a netbook. I have been doing my research and have it narrowed down to 3. Any and all input will be highly regarded. I think I would be happy with any of these. If Lenovo is true to the thinkpad reputation it is sturdier than most. WHat attracts me to the HA is it is hip and cool. I am a consultant and like to project that. The lenovo is a little more old school. Also please let me know if anyone knows of any new models coming out like for example a higher resolution screen. I am a techrepublic virgin so looking forward to hearing from the pros

Asus 1000HE
