It's so easy to get lost in cyberspace

This morning when I woke up, I had every intention of continuing work on my outline. I thought I would just do this on the Internet first - now I can honestly say that I don't even know how, but somehow the next thing I knew, I was looking at PDAs, which then somehow led to Netbooks. Then I thought I would like a Netbook, because you know then I can do actual writing - as oppose to notes - when I am not at home, because laptop isn't exactly commute friendly. I don't even know if I can afford one, but I started looking at what was around and guess what? It's 23:00 and I have just finished the whole day of netbook research. I mean BLOODY HELL, where did the day go?? You know how easy it is to click this link and that, just look up one more thing, and voilá - barely a sentence added to the outline. But research is done, and at least I know that I would definitely like a netbook. I don't know if I will be buying one yet, but it's on my list. And now I can finally get to my outline. It's only 23:00 afterall, still whole night to go. Coffee, double chocolate cookie, and the outline. So for those of you who have a netbook, which one would you recommend (only reasonably priced ones, not very expensive like Sony Vaio)? P.S: - after my behavior today, which is alas not rare, I have decided that when I do buy a netbook, I will NOT activate Internet on it. That will only be for writing, otherwise I will never get off the bloody net.
