I'm sending this from my Sharp MM10 (9.25" x 8.x") that is set up for
dual-boot between WinXP Pro and Slackware (came installed from Emperor Linux
and they had 2-3 choices of distro).  It has wireless built in, which would
seem an excellent solution for the kitchen use.

While here at work I plug it into an external 17" flatscreen, speakers,
ethernet and a USB farm with two high speed hubs, floppy, HD, DVD/CD RW,
Visor cradle, keyboard, trackball & flash key.

Since it uses the Transmeta Crusoe 5800 1GHz chip it is running nice and
cool, too.  Can't use it for helping the bread dough rise!  ;-})


In Harmony's Way and In A Chord,
