UMID M1 mbook Available now in Linux and Windows XP and Both Very Pricey

,----[ Quote ]
| The $659.42 (Linux) and $765.78 (XP) price points won’t help its cause 
| either. For these prices, UMID could’ve used an aluminum chassis and maybe an 
| OLED screen and higher-capacity 32GB SSD.

The Android Netbooks Cometh

,----[ Quote ]
| Thanks to netbooks, 2009 will be "The Year of GNU/Linux," says blogger Robert
| Pogson. A netbook running Android has been spotted in the wild -- the Skytone
| Alpha 680. Though its specs may be somewhat anemic and its price may be
| somewhat high, it's stirring up a lot of excitement in the Linux community as
| the harbinger of netbooks to come.

Ballmer: GNU/Linux Will Win on Netbooks

,----[ Quote ]
| I think this is a very frank analysis of the problem for Microsoft: after
| all, who's going to pay extra money just to get the Windows logo on a
| netbook, when they can get the same features for less with free software...?
