Posting from netbook hp mininote

So i finaly went to store and bought netbook hp mininote.
By default there is installed suse enterprise linux.I plan to install windows xp but it is kind a problematic since netbook doesnt have cd rom,which means i need to follow special instructions for installing it from usb stick.Keyboard is good and i think once i masterize typing on it,it will be faster to type on it then on my Microsoft natural keyboard which i using on normal pc. Little screen is kind a disturbing but once you learn scrolling it's not a problem.The problem is now i need to use it as only computer since i screwed boot on main pc and i will need to reinstall xp there.And i dont have here bookmarks neither data for works,which totaly suck.I guess i will have to spend this night with thinking how to install windows xp here using usb stick,but again i need to reactive main pc to access data,so even installing xp wont change much.

And thing what bothers me,real laptop cost only 50$ more and it even have little better configuration.Well i guess privilege to holding computer on pants it cost more.Plus wireless connection didnt worked to my local router,but i guess that is beacuse of router and not computer itself,so i usinng wired connection now.
