I'm being enticed to keep the E1505/ati by company A now.  I called to
return so I can look at the 1405/1210 and company A will give me $390 back
to keep it........

Laptop works with LInux just fine.  But I did want something smaller but now
that its  about 1/3 off not sure I can pass it up :)

Just live with ATI
