    Me too :) Maybe you should consider installing another flavour, such as Ubuntu or another OS, such as Windows.
    Alternatively, you could start a new thread and hope for a Linux expert to come along.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this is a serious error by the hopeless DSG group. The links provided by the OP is the 80GB one.

    This is the correct one priced at £169.99.

    I only know this as I looked at it a few days ago when looking for one.

    This link takes you to one priced £174.99
    :p

    Easypeasy ubuntu is a netbook remix - worked great for me as I couldn't get my 3 dongle working with the Linpus, without losing the ability to use my wireless at home.
