For what it's worth, most netbooks have a 1024x600 resolution (all the 
9" and 10" ones as far as I know, with the exception of the HP one which 
has a highjer resolution). The old 7" models might have had an 800x600 
resolution but I think these can be ignored now (no 7" netbook is 
shipping anymore).
