The ISTE journal "Learning & Leading" current issue Vol 37.1 has a netbook
article on page 14. You can download and read the free online PDF version from this link. <a href="http://tr.im/wjuI" target="_blank">http://tr.im/wjuI</a> It is a good 4 page summary of the different options spanning thick,
ultraportable and thin computers and gives good mention to the XO-1. I rather like the point made at the
end that a cheap solution is not desirable if it is created through
draconian measures to limit access to technology resources and
services.<br>
