How many Monopendecies will there be this time around? How long before it's

| Everex’s CloudBook goes on sale at Wal-Mart starting this Friday (2/15/08), 
| according to the company. It will cost the same as the Eee PC 4G, but it uses 
| a standard 30GB disk drive in place of the smaller SSD. It runs the gOS 
| operating system, which is based on the popular Ubuntu Linux distribution, 
| and includes the usual open-source suspects (Mozilla Firefox, OpenOffice 2.3 
| and GIMP, an image editing program).
