Just saw this on TUAW and thought it might be of interest. Full title is "Why the hackb00k is a failure"

Netbooks aren't a replacement for laptops, but knowing that they aren't as fast as true laptops, I use my MSI Wind Hackintosh only when I don't have to do CPU extensive work.

I just use it for writings some texts/letters with Pages (MS Office is way too slow even under Windows), Calc for simple spredsheets and Keynote as PowerPoint replacement. (Well I do use these apps on my MacBook too).
For netsurfing and emailing the netbooks are fast enough.
I do even use GPSNavX and MacENC on my MSI Wind. It works great and one doesn't have the problem to find a enough power on a boat a cigarette ligter cabler is enough!

For doeing graphics intensive work like photoshop, iPhoto, Pages (DTP) or video editing, thenetbooks are definetly too weak, but that was said from the beginning on.

I'm still waiting for a 10" MacNetTouch, a bigger iPod touch.
