The Asus is the winner spec wise. I’d go with that one. EDIT: Sorry, Acer lol. I’m tired. Thanks 91240. ---

Just based on the CPU speeds the Acer is the better of the three. ---

They are all very close, for me it would be betwen Acer and Lenovo. 10 hour battery life is very nice, but Lenovo might be better quality (not 100% sure on that anymore). Acer seems to have the better FSB and chipsets, I’d probably go with them. ---

Now the real question i realize that it is a NETbook used for internet. I occasionally download music to my external harddrive would one of these be ok for the occasional cd download?? i dont save the music to the PC/laptop right to the harddrive. the only thing that on the computer would be the download program (i.e Azurus Vuze) ---

Nah you’ll be fine. It won’t run like a bag of balls from MP3’s…unless you download ones that are infested with virus’. Then it would. CCleaner (once a month) + Spybot Search and Destroy (once a month) + good Anti-Virus = No problems. Ever. ---
