Hello. I love this topic. I was actually thinking about getting one of these
to and was wondering the same thing. With them not having a cd drive, I am
assuming that booting from usb is how you would get linux or what ever else
going on one of these? Also, how hard is it to find one with win xp all
ready on it or is it a matter of having to buy it and find the drivers?

Well one can buy an external CDR or DVD drive that connects to a USB port.

No problems installing screen reader software on these computers. The
challenge is that most of these net books don't come with any optical
drives. CDRW-DVDRW for example.

I am considering getting a small NetBook computer running either Linux
with
a screen reader such as Orca, or Windows running JAWS for times when my
wife
and I travel and don't want to haul around heavy laptops.
