Me, too. I use an Acer w/a 120GB HD. The optical drive would be a nice
addition, but I just picked up a 320GB portable HD for about 70USD which
works well for additional storage. The Acer has two SD slots and three
USB ports so even flash drives for additional storage are viable options.
The last wedding I did I used FastStone to do some quick and dirty
editing. The bride and groom were thrilled to see a slideshow of their
pix the next morning at breakfast.

I did a similar thing years back with a Toshiba Libretto running PS6 on
Windows 2000 in a whole 64mb of Ram. It was slow, but when you are only
copying files and reviewing the day's shooting it was good enough. The
only downside was no optical drive as I like to burn copies to DVD and
mail them home. I like the size of the netbooks (10" screen seems a good
compromise) but I'd prefer something with the DVD built in. That doesn't
seem to exist at the moment even although it wouldn't add that much more
size or weight. We are doing a trip to Hawaii, NY and Quebec later
this year so I might look into netbooks again before I go.

Enabled myself with a MSI Wind netbook, runs 5-6 hours on a
batterycharge, has an SDHC card slot, 160 Gb disc and enough power to
run Lightroom. Small enough to fit in a normal photobag (10"), about 1
kg and half the price of a 100 Gb imagetank (300 euros)!
