::shudder::

With how just two glasses of Guinness and a few bottles of cider have 
made my insides behave I think I'll give that one a miss.

It's a proper little computer in a very small case.  You can easily 
download hundreds of easily-installable applications from the web.  You 
can do wireless or IR networking/internet access with it,  and can even 
install mplayer and play videos/MP3s on it(as witnessed by Aq & Fizzy 
last night).

There's even a version of Debian available for it... :D

What's not to recommend?  :)

On the minus side, IME it's easy to kill(*) it.  But I do do, as Aq et 
al have said on numerous occasions, weird shit with mine.  ;)

I'm going to give X11 with UAE a go tonight... :)

(*)  Not exactly kill, not as such, but make unresponsive to the extent 
that it's actually hard to even get the 'I'm charging up now' light to 
appear.  Once you *do* get it back, though, and it's charged, it's fine.
