I'm using the Linux installation that comes with the machine. It works very well and looks like Windows anyway... ;D

The game is Paradroidz, which i had to withdraw due to some license problems, which is why it isn't available anymore... :'(

Oh, I have seen screenshots of that game, and I heard it talked about, but I never could find where it was.

Is that the new 8.9 inch model?  I don't see how it could be because I think they just announced it.  Anyway, I think that thing is so cool.  I want one but I have no reason whatsoever to get it.  I only use my computer at home.  The only little tiny reason I make for myself is that it would use a lot less power than my desktop, but it doesn't have a phone modem and that's all I can use right now.  It's so cool, though, just the right size.  If I did any traveling, I would love to have something about that size.  Great price too.  I'm not sure if I would switch to ubuntu with it or not, it depends if it has that download thing they use, apt-get.  That's so nice if you use Linux.   I guess Wine is getting a lot better now too and it can run Photoshop pretty well.  I don't use Photoshop, though, I use Gimp.  Free is the best price.

No, it's the "normal" model...and at least this model has a build in phone modem.
