Those little Acers are the "little engine that could" of the computing world. Mine has more mileage than I could believe possible. It flies West coast to Midwest at least twice a year, is beat to hell on a weekly basis, and does everything most normal user's need. Add in a usb dvd drive and its perfect! My usual machines are Toshiba, bulletproof tanks that just keep working! (a 30 lb ceiling fan dropped on this one, STILL WORKS) but I agree, Vista sucks. I have 2 XP machines, 1 Vista and 1 Ubuntu 9.04, and I mainly use the Ubuntu machine. I leave the windows alone, leaving that for my wife and kids. Fair warning, Ubuntu and Windows wont play nice together, if you switch to Ubuntu, you'll need a 3rd party formatting system to make it so that windows will recognize your hard drive again if you go back.

I put my movies one it , have a usb tv tuner. And it takes up a whole lot less room in my backpack when I ride my motorcycle. Running xp and ubuntu remix. ( the only safe way to surf the web) Got it off of WOOT for $259. But local Office Depot ran it for $299. Added the 2 gb of ram for $29 Ya just can't beat it for it size.
