I have an Acer Aspire One for almost 2 years now, and I LOVE IT!!!
I bought the 9 cell 7900mAh battery upgrade off of ebay, and now get easily 7.5 hours use from a single charge (and yes I have a hard drive - first one had SSD and it was constantly hanging on me - getting the hard drive Windows XP flavor netbook solved any problems)
I have a triple boot set up with Window7, Windows XP (for my VirtualDJ), and Ubuntu Netbook Remix ...
I chose the Acer Aspire One, simply because they are the most popular netbook going, and compatibility means alot to me (aftermarket accessories etc)
I also have a slimline DVD-RW, and a Western Digital 250GB 2.5" external Hard drive to use as a digital wallet when downloading pics from my Canon Rebel Xti
I do not do any heavy resource-intensive tasks on the road, so having a 2 pound netbook as opposed to a full 8 pound laptop is very appealing to me!
My entire kit - with the netbook, wireless mouse, external DVD and hard drives, weighs a total of 3.5 pounds ... portability ROCKS!!!
