FWIW, indeed there are some vendors who are doing it. Lately, I have seen Acer laptops being advertised (in the B2B rags) with their Linpus Linux distro pre-installed and a lower price tag (avg. 4K) v/s counterpart with Windows pre-installed. They are also offering the D250 Netbook with Linpus at around 17K now. -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
