Now who's not living in the real world?
What software that anyone uses is included in the box?
Paint? Wordpad? Internet Explorer? MS Mail (was Outlook Express)?

I've been playing with Beryl today - a 3D accelerated window manager for Linux. Now it's prettier than Windows too, and the prettiness is completely customisable. I'm not interested in all the fancy transitions and stuff but I'm excited that I can now have Mac Expose like functionality on Linux.

If Apple doesn't release a small notebook soon I just might go back to Linux on the desktop.
