Not tried one yet. But I have to think that a good comparison would be
my laptop which is a 1.7ghz Pentium M, which gets completely bogged
down by anything other than the simplest of Ableton Live 8 sets.

And a netbook with enough storage and memory to be actually useful is
more than $250 -- I'd think about getting a conventional laptop for a
little bit more.  If you're worried about portability, get one of the
smaller models.
