What would you wan't to use it for?
It's not good for much really :/

Just for the internet. Girlfriend can use it in the car as she has the main laptop for uni due to its size

Is the spec decent for a notebook and is the price decent?

If that's purely it, then I guess. I'm sure you could get it a bit cheaper, they retail new for like £220. To be honest, the majority of netbooks are virtually the same. Only the newer ones with dual core processors and dedicated graphics are actually capable of doing anything more than internet browsing.

One thing though, how are you planning to browse the internet in the car? WiFi tethering?

it's ok, but as said for £150 second-hand I don't know if it's that great. I'd like to have 2GB memory for Windows 7 also.
