   gang,

   I rarely glance at any come-on advertisement, but I just got
   one by amazon that has a $380 HP Mini 10" computer for $200.

   I want to use something about this size for my type-and-speech
   computer.  I'm thinking more of the ASUS 9" notebook.  What
   are people's thoughts on this?

   (Yes, this is still an attempt to drive sales in a bad
   downturn. etc.  Still, altho these tiny computers many be
   manufactured in the same plant by the same corporation, it may
   not make any difference.)

   anybody on-list who cares to share?

My wife has one of these running XP. I've booted and run both 7.1-RELEASE and 8.0-RC2 from external USB. It's a nice little piece of hardware. Unfortunately, the wireless chipset was not recognized. I did not pursue it any further._______________________________________________

Aloha,

The chipset is a Broadcom and I think there maybe a driver now. BCM4312 is the one in mine.
