Make sure you download the iso that includes Service Pack 1, that will at least get you up to Feb 2011, then you'll have to run MS Update a few times to get fully up to date.

I'm making progress on the Iso file. The program they suggested at the link wouldn't allow me to use my new USB flash drive (it refused to admit there was a usable disk present) so I ended up downloading Power Iso for the task instead. Now I'll just have to copy anything on the netbook that I want to keep and run the program. I still plan to look into other possibilities (i.e. the tablet) though. Even a netbook can get heavy if you are carrying it round long enough.
