Perfect for Travel!
I love this little laptop! I took it with me to Japan and enjoyed free wireless in my hotel room and it worked like a charm...how great to be able to read and write e-mail and to connect with my company's website from anywhere...and it weighs so little...heck, I can throw it in my purse and it's good to go...for what it can do...it's a heck of a bargain and a great alternative to a conventional laptop for an airline crew member like me...highly recommended. Initially I was thinking about using the provided CD to load it up with Windows...but why bother...it works great with Linux (and is very user friendly)so I see no reason to make the change.

FANTASTIC !!
I just received this Netbook today. I have worked with many PC's and every Windows Program out there. Linux is a dream. Turn the PC on and the screen is up in less than five seconds. If you do need Windows, install it, but this is great the way it is. It will not replace my Desktop or bigger Laptop but I can say that it will get used more than the others.
Mine came with a case.

They say " big things come in small packages ", this is the proof !!

Simple, Sleek, good all around
Exactly what I was looking for. After carrying a heavy laptop that hardly fits under the plane seat, I was thrilled to get this unit to travel with. When on the road, we use it to catch up on email and browse the web.

I 'pimped' it to use the normal Linux front end, much nicer than the dumbed down front end.

The web cam was an extra perk I paid for, but it only works with Skype, and not the usual IM suspects supported under pidgin. I tried to download the Yahoo IM for Linux software, but th were too many dependencies for things not availalble on the debian OS provided.
