For your information. I took the Linux boot disk and root disk, I
think they were .97, and booted it up on an ACER laptop over at Frys
Electronics. The laptop is $999, 1MB (can go to 5MB) and a 40MB disk
(can't expand) and a VGA screen. It looked OK. It has to be the
cheapest laptop Linux system around. 6 pounds or so.
