Unless I get a surprise soon, I will have to bag the plan.  It appears that 
the Microsoft tax is more of a coupon than a tax.  I am finding that systems 
with Linux pre-installed cost a couple hundred dollars more, than their 
Windows-based counterparts.

I hear all these wonderful things about cut-rate laptops with Linux, but 
then I find out that they are only available in Asia.

Bummer.
