Is this computer going to be your kid's primary computer? In that case you probably do not want a thin and light but something midweight with more functionality. Intel still dominates this segment (as well as thin and light) with Pentium M offerings but if you want AMD64 then I think you want to look for a notebook with a 2700+ or 2800+ low power mobile athlon64.

Here is an expensive (but good) example of such a notebook.
