There are quite a few low-price sub notebooks announced in the last few 
months, one which has caught my attention is the MSI Wind PC running Windows 
XP (for I am a Windows programmer by choice). The CPU chip is very low 
power, performance more than adequate for any current digital mode program.

These sub notebooks are not big, not heavy and there's the extra bonus of 
using a PC - larger fonts, logging and archiving of received audio for later 
playback.
