More information please - i'm pretty thick! What do you use them for? Can they be used the same as my laptop, can i access the internet and run George and are they wireless connection to broadband?

[matt]

linux is just a operating systemm like XP is

though they will both run XP and if any1 decides to buy, i can help out with that

its just a like mini-laptop

they will do everything a laptop does, they have built in wifi for access to the net, they will run george very well

if you just want to surf the net and do basic stuff, the 100 quid version will be fine

I have a 2gb Asus,was £200 so £100 is good, its linux but just squeezed XP onto it a year ago, George is now eating up the space on it. but its great being able to take the full George with me. Also put a cheap printer in the vehicle to do instant invoices.
