Hello guys,
I want to buy a netbook, but running on a very tight budget. :(
I do not have much expectations from a netbook of this price range.

I will be using this netbook just to teach my family members, 'How to use computer ?, internet ? etc.' :)
But still that notebook should have a good battery backup and a good processor.

So please suggest me the best possible netbook available in this price range.

Thank you.

Go for Acer aspire series. This one is better config wise.
I have personally used the atom one (aspire happy2), it was working pretty fine. You can try out them.

Thanks for your replies guys.
What do you think about Asus 1011PX ?

And what about IdeaPad S10-3C 59-051326 ? :(

Asus 1015PX-BLK053W is the best under Rs15k.

Asus 1011PX and Ideapad are based on Atom N455, while Asus 1015PX is based on Atom N570.

N570 > N455

Hello guys,
I have bought Asus 1015px yesterday, but I am unable to install Win XP into it through bootable pen drive.
I have tried every possible thing, like Ultra ISO, PeToUSB, WinToFlash, nLite etc. :(

The error message I'm getting with ultraISO method is "INF file txtsetup.sif is corrupt or missing, status 18. Setup cannot continue Press any key to exit".

I have once did PeToUSB method and it worked well. May be either you're missing something or your setup files are corrupt.
