Personally I find the screen resolution a bit low for doing a lot of browsing, you will end up doing a lot of scrolling around to read things and view pictures.

If you do get one then stick with the pre-installed OS, it comes with Firefox web browser which looks exactly the same as the Windows one and there really is no need to install Windows on it.

One thing they are good for is taking on holiday if you want to watch the odd film/transfer photos to and browse the web (they are also perfect for hacking into wifi connections for free internet whilst away)

We took one to Canada this year for a few weeks and it was perfect for checking up on snow reports and weather forecasts each day. For using at home i'd want something with a slightly bigger screen...
