All of the above for $350.

I purchased this computer to work on papers while traveling.
I chose it because:
	- it's battery life was longer then most other computers
	- it had the wordprocessor in ROM, so there was a quick
	  boot and less drain on the battery
	- the wordprocessor works with a mouse
