I didn't realise Acer were that bad? I've been recommended their hardware a number of times.<br><br>The Aspire One does look very, very nice...<br><br>Karl<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/6/6 Colin McCarthy <<a href="mailto:binarysignal@gmail.com">binarysignal@gmail.com</a>>:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I am sure most of you read <a href="http://www.engadget.com" target="_blank">www.engadget.com</a> daily (or hourly/minutely<br>
like some of us), but they have this story<br>
<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/05/acer-tells-windows-its-been-seeing-linux-needs-some-space/" target="_blank">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/05/acer-tells-windows-its-been-seeing-linux-needs-some-space/</a><br>
which then links to a Cnet Blog post about Acer turning away from<br>
Microsoft and embracing Linux. Especially for their new<br>
mini-mini-notebooks.<br>
<br>
The Engadget quotes are amusing to read. This is good news, it's just<br>
a shame Acer is such a terrible company (we never buy from them<br>
anymore), but hopefully others like HP and Dell with make similar<br>
decisions.<br>
