Count me in, Asus 1201T.

Here is a couple of programs I use:

RMClock
It allows you to lower the VCore on your CPU allowing it to run "extra" time on one battery charge (for instance this CPU is rated at 1.00v yet it can go as low as 0.675 with no problems);
TwoFingerScroll
It provides better scrolling compared to the "Synaptics Helper Service", so I just remove this Synaptics stuff from the startup and use this little app;
quietHDD
If you are the "proud" (sarcasm) owner of one Western Digital BEVT series HDD you might want to check this little app and use it or else the HDD heads parking every 3 seconds will not only drive you crasy but void your HDD waranty in ~2 months time (Load Cycle Count > 300000, that's right, check WD warranty policy).
