#6 just use "OpenOffice" (instead of 'Word') which comes with Linux-Ubuntu & is compatible w/MS Office...Verizon Broadband should run fine too.

Keyboard is too small for touch-typing. Easy to accidentally move the cursor with the trackpad. Otherwise, it's a decent machine.

Wait, aren't you supposed to be able to move the cursor with the trackpad? Isn't that what the trackpad is for?
