I assure you they do not.

I check the Omaha best buys just a few days, and they don’t even have a Linux netbook.

No offense, but most of the people I see at my local Wal-Marts are what you would consider “rednecks,” “hillbillies,” and “inbreds,” that would surprise me if they could find the power button on his or her PC. These people haven’t heard of Linux have no desire to run it.

Wal-Mart shouldn’t be selling Linux PCs. Places like Circuit City or Best Buy should. Or do they? The closest one to me is several hours away. -_-

Lol, Wal-Mart considered it a failure.. No idea why. Maybe they received a fat check from MS…

This was to BelchSpeak, but ended up down here.

The original was $199 without a monitor as well.

All of Walmart was sold out of them within 2 weeks! How is that a failure?

I call BS on this. Every time I checked online, the computer was constantly sold out. Walmart gave up too easily.

Now they are selling the gPC2, which is still $199 but without a monitor.
