Coincidentally, I'm thinking about selling it. If you're interested let me know. I have upgraded the RAM to 4 GB from 2 GB, and replaced the 320 GB HDD with a 120 GB SSD. It is blazing fast. Plus the 11.6" screen at 1366x768 is pretty high res for a laptop (more DPI than the iPad 2, actually ).
I currently have Linux Mint XFCE on it but can reinstall Windows 7 Starter.
I really like the little computer myself. I just don't use it as much anymore.
If you'd be interested send me a PM.
Stick with Linux as you can't 'legally' reinstall Win7 Starter. I think, but am not certain, that the limitation of 2GB RAM for Starter is enforced in the software. If it is then you can't install it. If not then you can install it but doing so will violate the license. You can, of course, upgrade from Starter to one of the other versions.
