Are there Netbooks for under $300 that have a cd burner in them? Or should I give up hope on that? I'm trying to buy one for my crew, so they can check e-mails, and post to our google site while at work. It'd be great if they could burn a cd or two as needed during tech rehearsals. But I'm wanting cheap more than high function.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've never seen a netbook with a CD burner - AFAIK they all give up the optical drive so they can be made small.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wget worked like a charm, Rick. Developer is all hooked up.
What tools do you guys use for web log analysis? For privacy reasons Google Analytics is pretty much off the table. Discussion here has centred around WebTrends and Unica Netinsight, but I was wondering what else was out there at the top of the market, especially something we could sample.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yeah, typically netbooks don't even have CD *drives* let alone burners -- but we bought an external USB burner that we swap between netbooks and optical-drive-died laptops with 3 OSes, and it works perfectly, plug/play on all of them. I'd vote netbook for mobility and one or two externals at a central location if you *really* need it and it's not just make-work.

Also, we have a lot of weird/mismatched/half-dead hardware. This is probably not news.

So what makes it a netbook? Size?
