The digital divide.

Since I didn't post at all for the month of October, (I was busy getting my Halloween costume ready) I figure I had better get it in gear. So, I thought I would mention the new Eee PC. It is a small laptop that is under $300. That means hopefully, a lot more people will be able to afford one. But, I think a bunch of computer geeks are snatching them up, so I don't think the masses are going to be able to pick one up this holiday season. Wal-Mart also has an under $300 computer this shoping season. And it's not nearly as cool. But the remarkable thing about both these computers is they run on Linux. Which is free so they can keep their cost down.
