I currently use a 10" Asus netbook while on business travel for personal use. I am able to comfortably use it in the ever-decreasing space allocated by the airlines while flying. Unfortunately, the tradeoff for size and battery life has always been the limited speed of the Atom CPU ... and the lack of dedicated GPU.
I wish to stay at or near the same form factor so that I can use the replacement while flying. The best tradeoff I've been able to find is a 12" screen. While processor, GPU, memory are all factors to consider I am most concerned about the size of the unit.
As for useage ... I watch movies/TV shows, do "light" gaming (but would like to expand to newer (3+ year old) games and Skype with the wife. Please recommend either a new or older out-of-production replacement that might fit my requirements. I am not against buying a used unit if I have to as I have had very good luck buying used/refurbed laptops.
Thank you ...
