1305084	2012-10-04 20:01:00	24 months ago approx, I bought a maybe 3yr old laptop, more portable version / tablet. 1.6Ghz, 4GB, 12" screen etc. If you can up the RAM you could just go with Win7. Mine works faultlessly.	Nomad (952)

(though make no mistake, they are not as user friendly as windows. they'll do alot more if you want them to, but you might have to put some work in to figure out how to do it. you CAN just install it and rock on for the most part, but there are some things that do require fiddling. Browsing, basic games, office stuff, video, music, etc are all typically available with pre installed or easily installed apps though)	8ftmetalhaed (14526)
