Becautious with these. They have shared video so they will not run
Vista, no big deal for us, but they also have the broadcom wireless that
only Unbuntu will recognize at present. Compaq/HP is unloading all their
"Non Vista" boxes before Vista is released. One of my students has one
($750.00 in Feb)and it is a pain to work with. Many of the games he uses
will not run on this box. I don't run games either but Compaq has never
had a "Linux friendly" reputation so just be "Buyer Aware" on this "Deal".
