I'm not rich enough to replace my stuff when it dies, I'm still using my 2003 PC with Linux. With thumb drives you have all the benefits of SSD (except speed, but that's not needed on a netbook), and if for some reason it dies, or you need more storage, you can easily and cheaply replace it with something better... Or, if you have to leave your netbook in a place somewhere else might use it, you just take the drive with you and it's unbreakably locked.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DarkLight]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 30th 2008 7:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on EMTEC bringing 10-inch Gdium netbook to America for $400]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/30/emtec-bringing-10-inch-gdium-netbook-to-america-for-400/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/30/emtec-bringing-10-inch-gdium-netbook-to-america-for-400/</guid><description><![CDATA[Er, someone else.<br><br>Also, you can have several OSes without messing with partitions.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DarkLight]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 30th 2008 7:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on EMTEC bringing 10-inch Gdium netbook to America for $400]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/30/emtec-bringing-10-inch-gdium-netbook-to-america-for-400/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/30/emtec-bringing-10-inch-gdium-netbook-to-america-for-400/</guid><description><![CDATA[Les: the perspective on the frontal shot is a bit deceptive unless you know what's going on. Actually the underside of the front of the keyboard is sharply bezeled, and the key is slotted in there; it's basically flush with the front of the system. You don't notice it in normal use.

I'm holding off on a purchase until an nVidia chip and a higher resolution (you know, one that can handle those programs that run at a res of 1024x768 - like 1280x800 or something).  I'm still really interested in the market to see what comes.<br><br>BTW, haven't seen any blue comments lately - is something wrong with the commenting system?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[E.
