My netbook is dead. What should I get now?

My almost two year old Asus Eee PC 10FSPED is in its death spiral. The service desk at the store I purchased it from says its mobo failure, and all I can do its take off my files before it's unserviceable.

So I guess I have to replace it. I want something that I can take notes in class with, write and edit papers with, and maybe use programs like photoshop.

Would a tablet computer be the thing?

Is there a laptop computer that will last longer than that Asus while still being a budget item?
