I'm considering this one myself. BTW, does it play music and DVDs? I know it has a small screen. Keep us informed about how you like it. I’m considering this one myself.

My objective was to get something small, cheap (Laptops sometimes get stolen) and I wanted it to have wireless. Using Linux allows it to use minimal memory and be safe from viruses.

Like Tom, I was initially confused too re the 4GB of memory reference - and was cussing my luck that I had bought a laptop last year, costing 1500 dollars, and it had only a mere one GB of RAM. A gringo in Volcancito told me last year that she was getting a new pc, built by Dell...in some factory in a neighbouring country (I forget which one.....don't think it was CR). I might explore that avenue and see if I can get a good deal. Congrats Don, it looks like a real nifty little laptop.

It has 3 USB ports, built in webcam and mic, jacks phone and either net and a slot for flash memory. It uses Xandros Linus, which appears to fe fine for the moment. I still have a lot to learn. Hi Omar. That is the plan. I just hope I have enough memory to move photos from a camera to the PC. Hi Leena. And congratulations to you as well. I am curious. Your trains have ADSL connections? Your PC is a lot mor powerful, but I was going for size to make it easy to carry as well as being cheap in case it got stolen. Tpm.

I payed from it 499 € , it makes today a lot more dollars, but it was cheap one here, Packard Bell AC200. It is very fine, when I travel by train. I can use there Internet by mobile ADSLconnection. Nice times to you! Congratulations for your new laptop:)
