I really want to buy a laptop. Small one, don't need to game on it. For that I have this stationary. Less than 2 kg, and... I don't know, 10-12'. Around there. Anyone have suggestions? Have been looking on the internet for about 1 hour. Can't find anyone I like. Oh, and color: either white or silver/gray.
We've got tiny little Acer laptops at work, they're pretty slow though.
I'll see what I can dig up.

I'm looking mostly at 12-13" screens and at integrated graphics since you did say you weren't planning to game on it. I'm not sure what the price is going to come out to, but expect a pricey tag. (Cheapest ntoebooks usually range from 13-17 inches - mainstream)
Lenovo Thinkpad X60/X61 - around 3.5 pounds (Less than 2 kg, but more than 1) with a 12.1" screen. Probably the most durable out of the 4 I mentioned.
Asus W5F - 1.6 Kg, 12.1" screen. (Honestly don't now much about this one. I just saw it's specs and such)
Asus U1F - 11.1" Screen/Around 1kg I think that there is supposed to be a Santa Rosa refresh coming soon for this model. The nicest looking IMO of these 4.
Dell Latitude D430 - Yes it's Dell, but their notebooks aren't that bad. The Latitude series seems to be decent.
Sony Vaio TX/TZ - TZ is a refresh of the TX, but still no Santa Rosa (I think). If you google the TZ, you can find some pictures. I think it looks stunning. It's supposed to get a lot of battery life since their processors are "Ultra Low Voltage." Lower clock speeds though. It's also really pricey.
Just a few suggestions. Or you can go to different ODM sites and search for "ultraportable." If you're in Europe, try looking at some Zepto models, I've heard they've got some decent hardware in their notebooks for their price.

I was gonna suggest a X61 Thinkpad, but apparentely I'm too late. I have a X40, although a bit slow, its a though little fucker (dropped it while it was on down some stone stairs and the only damage was a little scratch). I still take it with me, when the 17' HP is too heavy. Also those x series have great battery life
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.
The Asus W5F looks very good. Too bad it is that much in price. Hmm......
