@lunduke I'm looking for a little palmtop-style computer, with the ideals of 1- being able to run a rad operating system (DOS, FreeDOS, AmigaOS, maybe even Linux/*BSD) and 2- having some means of getting information off of it when I need to transfer data to my regular setup. I anticipate having to save up for it, but I'd like recommendations on what I should be looking for. I don't want a GUI (I'd mostly just be running wordgrinder and vim) & I anticipate not having a working network connection.

@zachir @lunduke I went and bought a cheap netbook from BestBuy for like $125 and put Linux on it. It’s probably my favorite computer because it can do the simple things I needed it to do (development) plus the occasional cat video.

@jv1783 @lunduke that sounds pretty good, I might have to give that a shot
