[gui-talk] Net book specs

[Baracco, Andrew W]

Last year, many netbooks such as asus and acer offered Ubuntu linux, but
sales were poor, so the linux models have pretty much gone away.

There are many who feel net books will dominate the world of computers
in the next few years especially if cloud computing takes off.  The big
problem for Microsoft is the current price of windows.  If they don't
lower it computer manufacturers we switch to other less costly operating
systems.

I've already heard talk that when Seven officially comes out later this
year, that there will be special packaged deals between MS and the
various net book distributors.
