Confused whether to buy a netbook or not...

I have been considering to buy a netbook for basic applications like
-web browsing
-typing and editing documents
-watching movies and listening to music
-downloading stuff(download a lot of movies)

I am considering a Netbook

something about this Netbook

Operating System Windows2000/XP/Windows7
Processor Intel Atom D425 1.8GHZ
Display 10.2'' Wide-screen
1280*600 WXGA
Graphic Processor Intel GMA X3150
System Memory DDRII 1G
Max Memory Maximun to 2G
Memory Slot 1×So-DIMM
Hard Drive SATA 160G (250G/320G)
Max Storage Maximun to 320G

My prime concerns are:

-How much of multitasking can it handle?
For instance how comfortably can it pull web browsing (with multiple tabs on),editing documents,a download in progress while a movie is running simultaneously?

-Would a netbook be able to pull maximum internet speeds?

Please help me decide if netbook is a good choice at all

take the ultraportable laptop lenovo thinkpad x120e with 11.6" screen. it features amd zacate fusion apu, wifi b/g/n support, 320 GB HDD, 1366x768 resolution, it can run 1080p videos with ease. you can also play games with radeon hd 6310 integrated with the apu, screen is led and features anti-glare. all this just at 18k INR

Regarding pricing they'll cost you from 27,000 to 34,000 for an average APU based notebook.

I expect E-350 netbooks to actually be around 18-25k.

@OP
wats your budget???
a netbook screen is going to be too small to watch movies!!!
