Win 7 isn't going to change that dynamic. It already exists. But what will change it is the adaptation of Web based applications. Those are...
Which proves Win 7 won't kill Linux in the netbook market because most netbooks won't meet that criteria. Most desktops in the ULC market will...

SuperUbuntu will do it all and will fit easily on an 8gb key. But first I'd try Puppy 4.1. It will leave almost your entire 8gb for "stuff" and...
