I posted a screencap of the error message I keep getting yesterday or Friday. You can look at it - SBG said I'm missing some essential drivers that it needs to install Windows. Unfortunately, I'm just not technical enough to get drivers onto a machine without Windows and I can't get Windows on the machine, and then Mom & Dad offered to buy me a new machine, so who am I to turn that down? The new machine will be AWESOME.
For someone who is technical and computer minded, I'm sure they would get Windows running on that machine. Like I said, I installed Ubuntu/Linux on it and it runs beautifully, but I live by being able to play Flash games and Linux and Flash don't really truly like each other yet, so it's not the OS for me. I think it would be a great kid computer.
