I've got an HP mini 110 which I upgraded to 2gb. It runs MS Office 2003, SQL Server 2005 Express, and VS2008 just fine. The biggest problem I've had is that the screen resolution is 1024x600 and Windows 7 won't let you have a bigger scrolling desktop (unlike Windows XP). So it's not very useful for development work unless you've got a second monitor. But for on the road web and document work it's fine.
