My point is that Dell uses crappy parts, whatever they don't post thhe specs on, they tend to skimp on.
MSI U100 is a beast though.

What Dell parts are "crappy"? I work providing IT support for a couple dozen Dell computers. I can tell you first hand that they hold up very well!
I'm going to have to consider how to keep his kids away from things on the internet they shouldn't be exposed to
I pretty much have decided to pick up a laptop/notebook as opposed to a desktop or netbook.I think it fits their situation the best.
I want to find something with a pretty good software package...I guess it will be a Vista/windows7 OS.I had a talk with him today and the budget is $500.I'm not opposed to used,refurbished,Ebay(I've had plenty of good dealings and know how to handle the problems),or brand new turn key ready,just want to get the most bang for the buck.
Anyway,all of the help is appreciated...anything you can add is greatly appreciated.
I've had week long trials with both the HP Mini 1000, and the Dell Mini 10v.
Good enough for you?
I don't think policing the Internet falls on you. Just let the parent(s) know what is out there, and have them keep an eye on the kids. However, if you can find free parental blocking software I'd go ahead and put that on.
