Get a Linux-Powered HP Netbook for $299 Shipped

"The HP 2133 is the one netbook I've actually reviewed, and I liked it well enough except for two issues: price and performance. But my eval unit came with Windows Vista and a $799 price tag; the model Amazon is selling has SUSE Linux and costs $299. By all accounts, Linux runs much faster on the 2133 than Vista, so it should be much more usable."
