   That's what I've heard. But, by the time MacBook Neos are sold as second   
   hand, it might be different. Who knows. (Even if Linux is supported on the   
   Neo, the keyboard will still be wonky, from my point of view.)   
      
   I wonder how deeply the Neo will cut into Microsoft 11 sales?
