HP is expected to release Linux version of its HP 1000 netbook next January. Somehow, the Linux version only $20 cheaper than the HP mini 1000 XP version, makes us wonder what kind of agreement did HP make with Microsoft. Who would buy this HP 1000 in Linux flavor when there are only need an extra 20 bucks to get a Windows XP License ? Sure there are more than a handful of Linux fansboy out there. Or maybe Microsoft haters ? sourse
