[QCLUG] Here is a netbook deal I found on geeks.com for those with smallerfingers.

I stand corrected on the MSI Wind comparison. My Mini 9 and the 2 Gig
of RAM I ordered are in transit, I feel like a kid on Dec 21st.

At $200 I wish I had ordered several. I am not sure what I would use
it for but I'm thinking I should have added Blue Tooth.
