    That's cheating
    I like the idea of Linux - I'm an old school UNIX bod.

      I'd stick with Linux on it, as long as I can get my modem to work.

        I'd definitely try and get leopard working on it, then I can use it as a "Back to My Mac" Terminal type thing

            Well, I've got one on order now. Hopefully should be here this week or next, so will let you know what it's like when I've played with it for a while.

              Laptops Direct say they are getting stock 27th November; Dabs says 3 to 4 weeks; eBuyer doesn't seem to have it any more.

                It's only £220. Sounds ideal for when you're on the move.
                Got mine today

                Just need to get used to the smaller keys than I'm used to.

                Detected my 3 USB modem with no problems, but all I've done so far is to surf CUK

                  Faqqer - I'd be interested in your impressions on it as time goes by, if you have the time. Almost bought one when Asda had them in stock, although that Vye one does look good!

                  I might have to post in the Accounting forum to see when my current laptop can be fully depreciated, to fund this...

                    Any more impressions on this? Did anyone buy the one with the built in 3G?

                    I'm getting that end-of-contract gadget itch...

                      I use my USB 3G modem with it with no problems.

                      Still not really done anything with it, but it's good enough for what I want.

                      Could do with being able to change the resolution on screen, but you can't. It detected my USB drive with no problems, but I've not tried it with a wired or wireless connection yet.

                      Anything you're particularly interested in?
