Perhaps a freebie for Moderators?!! Only joking. In view of what the HP Mini210's retail at, converting to GBP (Sterling) I think a reasonable price - IF the battery was a 6-cell lasting 5 hours+. Are they likely to reach the good old shores of blighty? (UK)

I was excited until I saw the price.
I can get a netbook for ?250 with a windows license, and then install any linux flavour.
The processor is outdated, N270 was ok in 2009 but not anymore.
Why should anyone pay the double for less?

Dear Marc,
The Zorin PC is not the same as a netbook. Firstly it is a rotatable touch screen tablet pc. The digitizer touch screen technology that we have incorporated into the Zorin PC was optimized for taking notes and drawing electronically. We have also tailored the software to make sure that Zorin OS will work 100% with it. Similar tablet pcs without those additional features that we included would set you back even more on the market.
