I JUST bought one of these. Tiny flash-disk laptop (less than a kilo), linux OS. Just wanted something to write on and I don't trust conventional notebook hard drives anymore, after my MacBook drive crapped out like two days after the warranty expired. Even that thing was way to heavy to lug around. Less than 50,000 yen and pre-loaded with 40 programs, wi-fi, etc. Should theoretically talk to my iMac. Not crucial. I can just gmail my stories to the big boy or I suppose I could use a USB thumb drive.
