Netbooks: spoilt for choice?

Decisions, decisions... You can't go too far wrong when buying a desktop PC, and any minor mistakes can usually be corrected by swapping a component or adding a peripheral. But picking a netbook is getting harder rather than easier.

Could it be that Linux sucks?

A 'state of the union' memo from Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer to all his employees makes it clear that the company still sees Apple and Google as threats, but for very different reasons. The defensive tone of the memo which mentions Microsoft's competitors by name is an unmistakable sign that the company is feeling the heat.
