And for a cheap laptop, best to wait until you can actually verify it
works before putting down cash.

I do think this class of device is going to be how most of people will
use the internet in a few years, and that they will be the first
all-linux desktop for most people (Asus eeePC uses a cutdown version
Xandros).

So, linux for the people is on it's way.
