Opinion on the best netbook for blogging wanted.

I was thinking about picking up a laptop or netbook for when I am on the go, but the choices are endless. Anyone had a good experience with new Ultrabooks, or even some of the less expensive Asus machines.

Please don't tell me to Google search, that's been covered. I ask here to get an unbiased, and unfunded opinion from other bloggers.

My daughter used the various netbooks only to find them rather fragile, which is a drag if everything is on the hard drive. With a Chrome Book, it's all on the cloud and don't have to mess with flash drives to access with my desk top.

I found it on Amazon refurnished for 150. Took out the horrible OS and installed my own.

Lasts like 40 hours on a single charge. Half a pound at most. I use it because it never makes a sound or gets warm (which I've heard is very bad for your loins).
