While I like Mac products and OSX is pretty cool, I
still find their laptops a bit pricey.
By the by, has anyone tried FreeBSD on one of those
little Asus EEEpc sublaptops? A real, tiny, i386
laptop for $300 (plus maybe a bit more for an
additional SD card to bump the storage some) seems
like a truly awesome deal.
