Hey guys. My sister's laptop went kaput in Melbourne. And I'm supposed to bring a netbook over.
Typical student usage: Microsoft office Surfing the net Watch movies Less than RM1,000 Long battery life

From cnet review. The bottom line: Dell's popular Netbook adds HD video acceleration for a solid movie-watching experience, but requires a still-in-beta Flash update for streaming video.

Oh. HD videos only is it. How about Vimeo?
Most netbooks have this problem I presume?
Do you know any other netbooks that are about that price range and standard? Planning to grab one tomorrow at digital mall.

Can stretch until 1.2k if there's a better performance netbook.

Yeah. One of her friends insisted she gets that. The performance? From the picture, it looks really portable.
