Netbooks are very limited in terms of graphics processing (anything involving video...720P will be a bit choppy for example).. the ones with faster graphics chips cut down battery life by half. I can see the appeal of the Ipad but I find I type probably 2x as fast on my netbook with real keyboard.

The solid state hard drive was a major part of the upgrade making it that fast. The ram itself didn't do that much of a speed increase...
