[geeks] Netbook/OS X suggestions?

[Lionel Peterson]

I saw a nice, basic laptop at Best Buy today, $329, big 15" widescreen  
(1320x768, IIRC), 3 Gig RAM, 160 Gig HD, DVD-R/W from Acer. It had a  
low-end AMD TF-20(? from memory) single core CPU & AMD chipset, so no  
good for OS X, but that was a very low-cost, fairly capable laptop  
alternative to a netbook.

Just a data point. They also had some nice $550-600 laptops, but  
nothing 'exciting'...
