Q. I am thinking of buying a cheap netbook ( the ASUS Eee PC 4G 701). Will I be able to write a document on the linux netbook and transfer it to Microsoft Word on my home computer, and is this difficult?
If you have any additional knowledge/experience of this netbook, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

A. If you are going to buy a Linux netbook I recommend buying one of the ones with Ubuntu Linux, such as dells or hp's. The Linux shipped on the eeepc is quite unpopular, and does not represent what Linux is capable of. (although you can reinstall another distribution on it)

Dell Mini 10v $299

Linux has many of the same programs you may be use to: Firefox, OpenOffice.org, pidgin, which interoperate well.
Once you get use to Linux you wont want to go back :P

are there any games that are easy to download and install to my linux netbook?
Q. i'm having a great deal of trouble trying to install any games to my asus linux netbook 900. i don't have windows and find it impossibly difficult and complicated to understand the installation procedure.
are there any sites that allow games to be downloaded/installed and played offline by simply opening and/or extracting the files. without having to also downloads endless programs or updates in order to just play the game?
please avoid using techno-speak when answering.
thank you

A. If you go to your main menu and look for an entry that says Add and Remove programs, you should use that to install games, or any other software that you want. It will automatically download what is needed, install it, and put an entry in you menu.
Good luck

How do i install things on linux?
Q. Sorry if this is confusing :l
Basically i have just bought a new acer aspire one linux netbook, i want to install ubuntu so i can install wine. I do not have a disc drive on my netbook so i would need to use a memory stick to transfer the files. But when i download absolutely anything Xarchiver opens the download and i have no idea what to do when it has opened. How do i install it?
Thanks,
(:

A. Well the Aspire One ships with a custom version of Linpus Lite Linux.
Here is a good review

The fact is that Linux is Linux and adding wine or any other program works basically the same regardless of the version.
You can visit the Linpus website http://www.linpus.com/
You can also check the manuals http://www.linpus.com/help.php
Changing to Ubuntu is ok, but I simply don't see the advantage.
Linux is not difficult, just different than what you may be used to using.
You should be able to directly download and install most items from the notebook itself off any web connection.
Here is step by step how to install wine or just about any other app!
