I really think you should consider the newer small laptop models like the newer ASUS and the DELL which are not much more expensive. Although all of these will probably run Club Penguin (I’m not sure tho) the screen is very small on this.

One guy was cracking things open to add a lot of memory and I bet he’s played with CPU also..

I think I read a review saying the ASUS has more features, but this is also a lot more expensive and unlike XO you cannot recharge your own battery with a little elbow grease.

Tiny keyboard remains the big challenge though I seem to be improving on that front.

Since my work provides one, I’ve been out of the laptop market for a while now (though the super thin Apples catch my eye), so these are somewhat new to me.

Although, I used to work with some software localization folks from Japan who would come over to the States periodically. Even 8 or 9 years ago, their laptops were always tiny – not much bigger than these. 10″ screens were the standard, whereas our laptops were getting bigger and bigger (I remember “splurging” for the 15″ Vaio in the late 90′s).
