It's fine for wordprocessing (I guess) but not much else. I guess if you really wanted to, you could probably load mklinux on it, but that would be some work, cause it doesn't have a cdrom, and I don't know if it can get ethernet hookups. I mean, paying more than 20 bucks for that 'book would be too much. --Nelson Abramson -- "Switch on any television channel and you have entered immediately the world of demigods and hungry ghosts." --Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, Sogyal Rinpoche ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
