You might want to take a look at used laptops on Craigslist, something with a better monitor. If your goal is portability, well, then I can understand your desire for a netbook. But then, some of the 15" laptops are quite thin and light weight.

Add some more RAM and you're looking pretty good. Also, if you're seriously going to use this as your only PC at college, bring an old monitor and USB keyboard/mouse from home with you. You can get old CRTs for free on Craigslist and the local Goodwill has decent keyboards and mice for <$20 total. Set up the desktop stuff in your dorm and jack your netbook into it when you need to do homework.
That Asus that Thrax linked has a decent GPU/APU. It should be more than sufficient for a medium monitor displaying Internet pages and office applications.
