Your offer is gracious, Sven. However, I just found an outfit which has a few eeePC in stock, at about US$225; the product series is EeeBook X205, with 32Gbyte flash memory. Would one of these be suitable? I can send you the URL. > Have you considered liberating a Chromebook? The same outfit has in stock a large number of Lenovo Chromebook N21, with ChomeOS and 16Gbyte solid-state drive, at US$200. (11.8in x 8.5in versus 11.3in x 7.6in for the eeePC) I really need a machine on which Debian is known to run. I have here somewhere a machine with the new-style BIOS on which I have made several unsuccessful attempts to get Debian to run. On the last attempt, the latest Jessie installer appeared to install properly, but the machine refuses to boot. Russ
