Dell NetBooks $200 (http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2009/02/dells-inspiron.html) :shocked:

Of course, they come with Linux...but that's not necessarily a bad thing, and they'll run XP if you want....

I'd get one and have my "computer guy" put windows on it. He's cheap, too.

I'd prolly leave it with Linux. Realistically, there's not a snowball's chance that I'd use it to conduct business, so for web, email, occasional movies, and light document handling, why not leave the virii behind? There's very few people willing to try to write malware for Linux at this point, simply because there are fewer machines running it, and it's more difficult to penetrate than Winblows....
