My department got a netbook last spring and I was able to use it to demonstrate factor analysis, logistic regression, and .....something else with data sets of <200 cases.
No problems with SPSS with the modestly sized data sets.
For me the biggest issue was that the room layout wasn't very good for running a demo.

Subject: SPSS 17 on netbook?
Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone had ever tried running SPSS on a netbook? My
department has just purchased an Asus EEE to be used for
presentations/lectures etc. I am wondering if it is worth trying to install
SPSS on there to see if I can use it for my workshops and lectures, which
will save me having to bring in my own laptop to work each time I need it.
It is model 1005P which has an Intel Atom N450 processor (512K cache,
1.66GHz) and 1GB RAM, and will be running Windows 7 Starter.
Initially I wouldn't be running very intensive analyses on it, rather
introductory topics like compute, recode, IF, split file, merging,
creating/editing pivot tables, creating/editing graphs. Later in the year I
would be starting on statistical topics like crosstabs, t-tests, 2-way RM
ANOVAs, small linear/logistic regressions. All will be on small data files.
Comments on the web are mixed. Some people appear to be running basic SPSS
things fairly successfully, though a bit slower of course than on their
desktops. I am most concerned about the graphics-related tasks - eg, opening
up a graph editor, output screen refreshing with new output.
Does anyone have any experience to add?
Thanks,
Kylie.
