It's currently preloaded with linux. Win XP version dunno when will come. But the presumption is that u can load it from CD via external.

An update for all potential buyers, not trying to burst ur bubble or anything but although it's using a ULV processor, the usage duration is an estimated 3.5 hours (from reviews) and the heat output is somewhat like a normal laptop which means it'll kill off ur... descendants if used for prolonged hours on ur lap.

But at a price of less than 2K per pop, it's a STEAL!
