We have an Acer aspire with the atom processor built in wifi and so on. I am using right now. It is great for sitting in the chair in the evening surfing the web. I also took it on vacation to back up the pictures every evening and sending email. Other uses have been maintaining a couple of excel files I use at a local shooting club. and playing MP3s in the garage. My wife uses it more than I do though I perfer the desk top with the 22" screen. I don't care for the small screen but it is fine for surfing and email. Heak I use my iPhone for most email these days. For the 250.00 we paid I couldn't be happier. It was an open box deal at Sams club. If it dies I will pitch it and buy another. I would also consider the cheep full size I think you can pick one up for under 400.00 that would be a good surfer. I like my iPhone but for the going price of the iPad It would be tough to justify double the price for a web surfer.
