| And did I already mention that the Linux edition of the Acer Aspire One
| currently fetches for P15,000, give or take? With its gorgeous finish, solid

| could redefine the platform's role in the consumer market. The problems faced
| by hardware makers that are currently attempting to sell Linux-based netbook
| devices show that it will not be easy for Linux to flourish in this crucial
| space, but some hard work by Linux vendors could help turn the opportunity
| into a victory.
