Nope. Don't have one. I need to do more than surf the web.

Then how do you know it "works great" for surfing the web?

The truth is that people devour efficiency - give a mouse a cookie (wow, what a great pun!), and he'll ask for a glass of milk.
I'll bet most people who don't own laptops and wind up purchasing a netbook, are likely to buy a real laptop in less than a year. They're better off ponying up another 200-300 bucks and getting a real laptop to begin with.
