Why compare apples to oranges? The EeePC is great for what it is. No-one has claimed that it is a substitute for a main laptop or desktop. The advantage of its small size is that it is light, readily portable, easily fits into a ladies handbag, is about the same size as a Harry Potter book and introduces its owners to Linux. As to pricing, it is cheap enough but looks even cheaper in American dollars. Cheers > > > -- > ubuntu-au mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au >
