No, this is just for the unit itself.

This is a good deal.

No Windows installed (just for those who aren't paying attention), so buyer beware of that; you will need an OS (sorry man....Ubuntu isn't an OS; its a geek toy Wink ).

Someone should snap this up.

I couldn't know less about computers and technology in general and I use ubuntu as do several members of my family. It is very easy to use. I have nothing against windows either. I just don't want to pay for it when ubuntu does the same job.

Yep, even this modestly powered computer is very quick using Ubuntu.

Ubuntu is a perfectly good OS. I'm sure you know this but you just like to be snide. Let me know how that works out for you.

Don't dis the Ubuntu. I've installed it for tech savvy and tech clueless people. You don't need to be a geek to benefit from a free OS. You should be aware though that internet banking here in South Korea may be an issue since they are very security conscious and, ironically, insist on using IE.

Biggest downside is odds are you will use Open Office with it. That is only a downside if you get annoyed converting everything to .doc for your co-workers or don't want to take the time to fix powerpoints you open in Present.

And of course both the above can be overcome if you are able to read and use google.
