Hi, The Samsung N 150 Plus (http://is.gd/HVLwHe) sounds like the closest you'll get too reading your wishlist, so to speak. The netbook uses DDR3 RAM, so in theery it wouldn't be that difficult to replace the 1 GB with a 2 GB stick. What's more, it's got an average of 8 hours battery life and the Dual Core processer you wanted, so to me sounds like a pretty good option. :) On 08/04/2011, Hussein Patwa <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello all, > > I am looking to purchase a netbook to use for working whilst travelling and > was wondering if anyone with experience could offer any recommendations. > > I am primarily looking for something lightweight but which also has > sufficient power to handle my screen reader and magnifier software as well > as Office 2010 and web browsing.
