Posting from an Asus EEE 1000HA. It has three USB ports.

I have upgraded it from 1GB to 2GB RAM. When I get the $$$ together, I will replace the 160GB hard drive with a solid state hard drive (a 64GB drive costs around $300). With the 6-cell battery, I figure my battery life will be over 10 hours!

Love this little toy!

Thanks for all of the info! I know about hubs but the problem is that the embroidery machine needs a direct usb port and so far will not run off of a hub atleast none that I have tried. Since it will be pretty much used only for file transfer and my software only runs on XP is the reason why I’m mostly looking at the mini netbooks otherwise it would be a wide open field. I run a mac exclusively but for file transfer this is a very cheap way to go and makes it so I don’t have to take a chace on dropping an over $5K embroidery machine moving it to the computer. Thanks for the info about refurbished that would probably make a 10” more affordable!
