Ok Ladies and Gents,
As a follow-up from the Which OS? poll, I'd like to know a bit more about your hardware. Netbooks really took off last year, and I, for one, welcome our mini, cramped-keyboard and underpowered overlords.
Let's see what comes out off this one. I've categorized the options thus:
Conventional Laptop: any 13" screen or above, that runs OSX, Windows or *nix, has a full-size keyboard, etc.
Netbook: any 11" or below screen, usually around/under $400, smaller keyboard.
MID: Small, not very powerful, but can access the interwebs. Let's include iPhone, iPods, smartphones, etc in this category.
Carputer: Ooo, fancy. A computer integrated into your vehicle, typically permanently mounted and hidden. Sometimes incorporates a touchscreen and/or wireless keyboard.
What with a what now? Pass me the Astrolabe: Luddite.
