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.
