Brian, Thank you for the link...
the last time I looked at the netbooks the price was high...  Or 
discontinued.
I use MINT (replacement for xp) on my "full" sized old laptop and it 
runs fldigi and wsjtx just fine (and USB sound card) and speed is about 
the same, too.
Mint (linux) works the KX3 and PX3 utilities, also.
It would be nice to have a smaller computer.

73, steve WB3LGC
