Is this good?

[ToxicPaddy]

I went into currys digital today and saw this tiny laptop. Its £225 and Linux OS. It looks decent but when it comes to specifications I'm hopeless :P I would use it for wireless internet and.. yea just internet general stuff like MSN, HabboxForum etc. Also can you get MS Word etc on Linux? Heres a link to it:

8.9" we're looking at http://www.comet.co.uk/shopcomet/product/484237/ACER-AOA110-AW/tab/pickup now. I'm sure it'll be colour.
