I didn't get time to make this into a coupon, but I have a discount code that is CPP293. If you enter it at checkout, you will get 10% off.

There are much better choices for green computing, like the Asus EeePC or MSI Wind - at similar if not more exciting prices. After all Netbooks have displays and keyboards and mice built in and are portable. Most of the Cherrypal website really is pretty full of misleading information. It does not only take "2 Watts" to run that's impossible with the MPC5121E chip in this configuration with all these peripherals added. No, really, don’t get one of these.
