You can use an external CD/DVD ROM. You can get them from PC vendors
(often the vendors selling you notebooks would have these external
devices).
You connect it via the port for thumb drives using a USB cable that
comes with your external ROM.

thanks for this.
if anyone can think of anything else that would be useful on one of these

i know it needs to be able to have jaws 10 or 11.

these netbooks are not intended for this, you will be just fine with WXP.
