<br>
I'm looking at one so that I can just grab and go. One issue is going<br>
to be maintaining productivity with my current desktop. It would run<br>
headless (no LCD) and then I would access its desktop via the tablet.<br>
This would be the only solution since I keep about 10 xterms open at all<br>
times.<br>
<br>
Crazy idea?<br>
