Mini-notebook runs "Windows friendly" Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| The RazorBook 400's Genuine CE Linux Operating System is said to 
| be "Windows-friendly," suggesting its interface resembles that of Windows. 
| The distribution includes an "open source Office Suite," which includes 
| 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.

Linux made the Microsoft New York Times, too.

Smaller Than a Laptop, but Bigger Than a Phone

| 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.
