Have a home server and ssh into it

so you can print or do other tasks. The reason for the netbook form-factor is portability and wifi or ethernet connectivity. If you have the connectivity then you have access to your other systems.

You can probably find a neighbor with an old Pentium-2 desktop they are about to toss. Get that and install Linux (Xubuntu or Puppy or appliance like FreeNAS) and hook your printer etc to it.

The netbook is your only computer? Then you've got to think your work-flow out better.
