If my experience with other Home versions of Microsoft OS’s is any judge, I’d avoid this at all costs. Meaning there will be an extra cost to upgrade the OS to a professional or business version, putting this in the $450-$500 range.

I think we will see deals like that everywhere by the end of 2008.

My main problem with the Zonbu laptop is that at only 1.5ghz, it has no staying power, certainly not for a 2 year contract.
