Can any one recommend any decent small laptops? I need something as compact as you can get that would run fruity and cubase etc Decent priced ones too, because I am piss poor.

Will check em out, nice one mate!
The ASUS EEE pc wont run cubase, its only 900mhz and runs on Linux.
Try one of the 12" ones.
Ooop, you did already. hence the limp. :lol:

i know they run on linux, but i'm sure i've read that they will run on xp?
edit:
some of the higher end ones come with it installed, and you can put it on the others: http://www.eeeguides.com/2007/11/installing-windows-xp-from-usb-thumb.html

i was going to buy an eee 900, but the initial run comes with small battery. all i wanted was a portable writing device. i just bought an acer 12" aspire 2920. bought it for 450. there were cheaper laptops with better cpu, but i was looking for battery life and small size. i had to remove lots of junk from it, but it seems ok. sure it would run cubase, not sure how many vsts you could use though.

you can buy a good laptop for audio production for 1000 euros or less
check ACER website
i know many people with laptops from acer , they are very cheap and the hardware is allways powerfull
forget the ASUS EEE pc´s they are low end products , made for reading documents and navegate in the internet
