Even though they're not true 64-bit machines, some of the later Atom processors will permit the installation of a 64-bit OS, but as you said, it isn't a good idea. The early netbooks ran XP or Windows 7 Starter for a reason.
So that I always have a PC with me, I keep an HP Mini210 netbook in the trunk of the car. Even with 2 GB of RAM and an (older) 128 GB SSD, Windows 8.1 Pro runs like a snail on it. Fortunately, I also have LL on it, so I can actually USE the thing...
