Year 2000 thinking brough forward
Simon Sharwood must be suffering from memory or intelligence dysfunction.
Almost every one of the approximate 14 plus people I know personally and dozens more who owned a then useless Netbook found glory by installing one of the low resources Linux distributions and more recently Android OS, for excellent results and satisfaction of redeemed productivity . That was many years ago and now Sharwood gets great idea of Windows 10 as solution for these Netbooks.
I have never seen such retarded and inconsequential tech journalism in more than 30 years.
