Default Notebook/netbook computers

I'm looking to invest in a notebook computer. If anybody here has a notebook computer can you please post the name of the notebook and how much you like it or dislike it (pros/cons)?

I have a Pavilion dv7 from HP that I got for Christmas last year and I like it very much!! Startup is quick and desktop takes seconds to load up. I had purchased a Gateway laptop myself from Home Shopping Network (HSN) and that turned out to be a disappointment; within 8 months, it started getting really hot and would shut down on me. I seriously cannot function without a computer, whether it be desktop or laptop, lol.

My Pavilion has a 17" screen, blue ray player, Windows 7 OS, 3 usb ports, 1 hdmi port, 4gb of memory, 500gb harddrive.

I think Netbooks are pretty convenient but I don't think they come with any disc drives?? Maybe I'm wrong, so just be aware of that.

Talking netbook

i have 2 that i bought earlier this year.
1.dell inspiron mini 1018 was 300 at walmart
2.acer aspire one d255 was 170 at walmart but it mightve been on sale cuz it was bought on mothers day

they have some on ebay for less money that r brand new-ive been checking them out for a gift.the acer is much lighter but i like the dell better.btw,neither comes w/a disk drive but i think u can hook one up-my son says u can,anyway.

i just searched online for the dell.
the cheapest one is found on amazon... they do carry it at bestbuy but it's $500. for that amount i can buy a regular laptop.
