You can?t even open the fucker on a plane cause there is no room and it?s also a bitch to use in a car cause it?s again larger than available space.

I?m looking for something as small as possible, but a full feature notebook, not one of those netbooks or whatever they call it, that don?t have an optical drive, etc. What?s the best option right now, best bang for a buck? Preferably no bigger than 13.3? screen.

Would I be better off waiting until laptops with Windows 7 are available (not sure how soon)? Are there any laptops that have Intel i7 processors?
