A Laptop for Kandor

| With smaller laptops costing even more than larger ones, the Eee represents 
| the abrupt end of that trend. Since it ships with Linux, Firefox, and Open 
| Office, there's no need to pay for a bunch of software, and ASUS can (and 
| does) pass the savings onto you.

Linux is about to take over the low end of PCs

| Opinion -- Sometimes, several unrelated changes come to a head at the same 
| time, with a result no one could have predicted. The PC market is at such a 
| tipping point right now and the result will be millions of Linux-powered PCs 
| in users' hands.

| Microsoft will fight this trend tooth and nail. It will cut prices to the 
| point where it'll be bleeding ink on some of its product lines. And Windows 
| XP is going to stick around much longer than Microsoft ever wanted it to. 
| Still, it won't be enough. By attacking from the bottom, where Microsoft can 
| no longer successfully compete, Linux will finally cut itself a large slice 
| of the desktop market pie.
