Hello all,

Lurked the forum for a bit, been trying to get my hands on a netbook to run OSX. Been a bit of a run-around trying to find a decent one that someone doesn't want an arm and a leg for, thought I'd try the good folks here.

After much perusing the web and reading, I've settled on a few different models with which I would be happy;

Dell Mini 10v

Asus Eee PC 1000HE

HP Mini 1000

Lenovo s10 (Although I'd like it with the 6-cell battery)

Samsung n310 (Side note: That raised "Samsung" logo is hideous)

Asus Eee PC 1201NL

I'd be happy with any of those, although my top pick would be a Mini 10v. I've been driving myself mad trying to find them on eBay, so I thought I would try here. If anyone has anything, I'd love to see it!

Thanks!

I have read mixed reviews on the N150; some said the screen was a little low-res and that it choked on 720p YouTube videos, yet others said it was fine; how do you find it? Plus I thought the N150 didn't have proper video working in OSX?

Ah the problem with eBay is whether you use eBay.ca or eBay.com; I'm in Canada so I have to use eBay.ca, and the results for Dell 1011 on that one are much worse, most people want up to 250$ for one, and to be honest that seems steep for a discontinued netbook.

Its not steep. If you really want something then you would pay any amount... just a thought. What about the HP Probooks? You should spend a bit more so that it lasts longer...

I really want a Lambourghini Aventador, doesn't mean I'll have the $600,000 for one

I'll look into the pro books, thanks!
