The HP Compaq nx5000 will feature Novell Inc.'s SuSE Linux and support a CD burner, a DVD and media player, wireless connectivity and the OpenOffice software suite. It will start at an estimated street price of about $1,140 -- about $60 less than the basic model outfitted with Microsoft Corp.'s Windows XP Professional operating system. ===================================== Derek. -- Derek Smithies Ph.D. This PC runs pine on linux for email IndraNet Technologies Ltd.
