I own a macbook Air and an Advent 4211 (msi Wind) I'm currently running os x on both of them. My personal experience on netbooks is I bought the cheapest for what I wanted... i consider the Advent quite useful for throwing into the hold of an airplane or for use on a packed train where space is at a minimum, with a 3g modem, quite useful! you wouldn't type the works of shakespeare on it but its grand for the commute! I note a lot more of them recently on the northern line.

My wife would consider me a gadget freak, though I doubt she would call me a geek because of it, more a disease of the trade

I use an iphone on the train alot, for entertainment and for the quick msg to here too. Replaced the apple earphones with sennheiser ones(at least no buzzing music to annoy other passengers)
