Yeah, I have 2 GB too, never even booted with 1GB. I work with large data files, big graphics and large word documents wiht plenty of embedded odds and ends. I find that open office is enough for typing quick letters and keeping track of expenses on the road, etc, etc. For serious office work, this is not a replacement IMHO, but that does not change the fact that when not using my work issued laptop, this gets 90% of the usage at home vs. my laptop and 100% usage when not inside (on the patio smoking, travelling, etc is 100% netbook).
