Hi Roberto,
When this first came out I emailed idot.com and my primary concern was
battery life as it seems most ads leave this out. My email reply was
about 2 hours. I am a fan of the transmeta which will get 4 to 11 hours.
I also was part of an experiment to install lindows 3.0 on a pc. It
seems to be based on 'stable'. I tried to do an 'update' and kill the
thing. Usings apt-get on lindows is like being a bull in a china shop,
proceed at your own risk. Also lindows removed virtual terminals, so if
you mess-up the gui login, you can not goto a vt to fix it. BUT other
than that it is a nice remake of the gui and if you use the
'click=n-run' software,etc. all is fine.
