$200 computer at Walmart

Thanks to free software like Google Apps, Firefox, etc... a company has developed a Linux OS called gOS that's similar to PCs / Macs (so easy to use for normal people) and it's pre-installed on a computer which is pretty cheap.

Good for people who just need to go on the net and do basic things. Obviously it's not good for having a lot of software.

Heh.

"Research indicates that Wal-Mart shoppers equate the size of the system to its capability."

Heh.

That review says it's not green, I was only saying it was cheap.

I'm not saying you're wrong on anything just posting something about the PC.

Ahh but it lacks a monitor and that costs some more.
