My wife has a WalMart netbook -- I got stupid once, handed her $300 cash, and said, "Go buy yourself one." There is more to the story than that, but that is enough of the story.
I really want one for myself. I can almost type on hers, but it is a case of really big hands on a really small set of keys. That said, it would be more convenient than my hauling my Dell laptop back and forth every work day. And to be frank, they are made for checking email and Facebook, not for word processing work stuff all day long. For my wallet, one is well worth owning. I will probably own one myself in the near future.
