EstLite will not run on the Linux platform.

However some models, such as the Elonex Webbook, are available with Windows XP installed.

Hi

Just taken delivery of a HP 2133 Net-book. Scrapped the Linux in favor of XP in readiness for my next decision on Framing Software.
It has 1 gig of RAM and 120 gig HARD DRIVE. My plan is to use it in my customers home to knock out a price for them.
The only worry I have is the text size, I have boosted it to the max, but it is still a squeeze on my eyes. At home I can plug it into a normal desk top monitor, so the software configuration and updating will be easier. I will buy next an external hard drive and back-up to that on regular basis. :D
