Re: [orca-list] Can vinux 3.0 go on a Netbook?

[Mobeen Iqbal <mobeeniqbal gmail com>]

Hi. a USB version has been made that should work on most netbooks, it 
offers you the option of installing vinux as an OS to your internal hard 
drive, dispensing with the need to remove your hard drive etc.  a 
windows version is also going to be available shortly if you don't 
immediately want to install as primary OS.
