| 8.9-inches dolled up in a sub-$500 price tag with a choice of both Windows XP
| Home or Ubuntu Linux, 8-in-1 card reader, integrated webcam, direct media

Microsoft's SEC (http://www. microsoft.com/msft/SEC/default.mspx):
"A prominent example of open source software is the Linux operating system...
To the extent open source software gains increasing market acceptance, sales
of our products may decline, we may have to reduce the prices we charge for
our products, and revenue and operating margins may consequently decline."
