| AbiWord, GNUMeric, an email client, FireFox 2, and a PDF Reader. The
| pre-installed software also includes games, schedulers, music players, movie
| players, and planners.

| This summer, Acer will introduce its 2.2-pound Aspire One. With an 8.9-inch
| screen and a Linux operating system, the $399 Aspire One just sneaks in under
| the ultra-mini definition. Later this month, MSI Computer will offer its Wind
| notebook. With its 10-inch screen, the $499 Windows-equipped Wind is a bit
| bigger than an ultra-mini; a $399 version loaded with Linux will be sold
| later this summer.
