Stretching the metaphor but doing it properly, M$ is
the evil demon on the Nether Plane, while Vista is
merely M$'s physical form in the MMORPG.
I normally do not find myself amazed by new lows
in frankly craptastic actions. THIS:

Seems tailor made to help Linux and the Open Source
world?
Especially this part (regarding UNIX/Linux), if SUA
does what I think it does:
"Windows Vista Enterprise includes features or
licensing attributes not available with other versions
of the operating system. Those features are: ... SUA
(Subsystem for Unix Applications)".

If you let me know where to come pick them up, I'd be
happy to come take up to 10 of them off their hands.
Should I contact Jeanne Malloy directly?
400Mhz still works for quite a lot of computer needs,
as my 300Mhz laptop still does many things fairly
well. I know a number of low-income folks still
struggling along at 100Mhz who would be happy for a
quadruple increase in processor speed.

I done some research and have found a few Linux

May I ask why you stay away from HP? HP supports
Linux with most of its printers, especially low-end
printers, so "staying away from HP" is going to
dramatically shorten your list of Linux-supported
printers.
One thing I really like about HP is that the print
heads are on the ink cartridges and thus replaced
every time you change an ink cartridge.
