I'm looking for a small, light laptop/netbook (with Windows), that won't choke on Calibre and Sigil. Liked Acer Aspire One looks and price, but somebody here mentioned that it has trouble running Calibre. As Calibre (and Sigil) are the ones I'll definitely want to use when away from my PC, that point is important. I don't need all my books on the road...

What should I look for? Processor?
Also, I'd like it to have at least SD-slot and several USB-s.

So, does anyone here have a good (or bad) user experience with Calibre on netbook?

TIA,
trav

Remember you can always dual boot it with a lite weigh Linux, like mint with xfce.
