Yeah it takes a couple of days to get used to it but now I'm fine.

I am made up with mine. New purchases will be a large memory stick for loading programmes on to..then onto the NC10.

Question - If I use a Mac to drag a programme from a CD onto a memory stick and then use the memory stick to transfer the programme to the netbook will this cause a problem? I presume it wouldnt for programmes compatible with MAC and Windows, but what about a windows only programme?

I wouldnt be opening the programme on the MAC would simply be dragging it onto the memory stick.

Not sure mate, with 2gb ram I would see it having no problem.

I've installed 2003 professional though, just on the safe side.

Good idea with the CD Drive...

I hope this plays Football Manager too as that might be going on at some point.

I wouldn't be too optimistic of running FM2009 on one of these, my Current Asus has a significantly better spec and struggles with this game
