I would still be using my 1000HE if the mouse and power buttons hadn’t stopped working (would have put an ssd in it then). Sure the keyboard keys are a bit wobbly but otherwise I really loved that machine. Nice form factor. Would love to be able to get a new 400$-ish 10-11” netbook with 6+ hour battery that would fly with some minimal Linux. Recommendations?
I had the 1000HE too, and ran everything from LaTeX to DAWs on it.
The only serious contender in that category now IMO is Chuwi Minibook X.
