All is good except no Xmarks for Safari, no big deal, just using Xmarks for Firefox in the meantime.

Don't notice much of a difference in terms of speed etc...
Reminds me of my Vaio SR7K back in 2000. I loved that machine ! A netbook before there were netbooks.
10.4 " screen, P3 600Mhz, 128MB, 12GB HD, PCMCIA, and 2.9 lbs !

me me me!!!!!!!!
I think the Dell was a poor choice. I spent less than $500 total on everything.
Eee PC 900HA (9", 1GB, 160GB): $293.95 on amazon/
2GB upgrade: $25.84 on amazon/
Wifi card: $17.45 on ebay/
Leopard: $109.49 on amazon /
External DVD drive: $49.99 on newegg/
Total: $496.72 /

Everything works for me except microphone input. I can't think of a more ideal netbook at such a price point.
I have no complaints with my 900HA (9",2GB,160GB HD). OS X runs great, everything works except the built-in microphone. I use it for travel to keep up on emails, web browsing, and giving powerpoint lectures. No long term typing on it, obviously. Also, I watch movies on it on the plane (plenty of space with the 160GB HD). Google EEE Boot on the easiest install of OS X.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm heading to university next year, and I've purchased a MacBook. I'm also taking my four year old desktop, just in case I'm left with no computers when the MacBook is being repaired or whatnot. With only two USB ports on a MacBook, I want a Bluetooth mouse. Budget is about $100, and of course, it needs OS X support. Thanks for the help!"
