I know it isn't really related to gaming, but some of you know your electronics. What's the best netbook I can get for around 300 bucks?

Thanks. I have a nice laptop, but it is a 17", so it is more like a portable desktop; I don't like carrying it around often.

get a matte screen if you can to avoid glare if you're gonna be portable


and a 6 cell battery is a must have

Any ASUS Eee PC would do the trick

I was looking at those. I was actually probably going to order one tonight until I got around to doing my taxes, and I realized we owe.

I'm afraid the netbook is a luxury that will have to wait.

You get what you pay for. So, choose by brand not specs.

I have an ASUS G72GX, but it's not very portable. I just need something portable with internet browsing and Microsoft Office.

That's the one I was looking at. It was first on the list of best netbooks on CNET Reviews.
