I trust discussion of Rudd money is at least partially relevant to your 
eLearning plan, especially planning your implementation strategies.

The panel UMPC from Acer is a cute thing - and cheap. You get lots of 
change from your Rudd $1000.

We got one to play with and see whether it can stand running Win Vista - 
our standard platform in 2009.

6 hour battery life!  Not bad...

Anyway, the interesting thing is the pricing:
$313 ex with Windows XP.
$469 ex with Linux.

Now isn't that really interesting - Linux is free, and Windows costs 
negative $156 dollars!

I'm gonna buy 10,000 copies of Windows and make a fortune...
