Well there is also Network and the abiity to attach a USB DVD-R drive or external
HDD. Personally I do miss the ability to make DVD's on-the-fly, just not enough to
switch to a heavier machine.

Also what I was thinking. Pretty much most netbooks are out, not only
from the keyboard aspect, but because I know my wife would complain
about having to use flash keys to install/move programs/data. Oh, I
think she'd be able to handle it, she just probably wouldn't want to ;-).
As for price
Well, I didn't buy that Sony for battery life or video playback, though
this machine plays blu-ray disc at full 1080p on its own screen, since
its native resolution is 1920 x 1080 and it has a blu-ray player on
board. I bought it because it comes with 6 GB ram and includes an
i7-720 quad core

AS I just posted, my KB is that width for almost 2/3 less cost & half the weight
though not a desktop replacement by any stretch it will give one a run for their
money on battery life & video playback.

Just got a new laptop..it measures 11 inches from tab to return key
(outer to outer). The keyboard is very spacious. Only problem...this
sucker cost $1400. Sony Vaio vpcf115fm/b. It also weighs about 7 lbs.
Pretty fast for a laptop (portable desktop replacement, IMO).
