JUST ENOUGH
MOST OF OUR computer needs -- e-mail, web browsing, image tweaking, word processing -- don't require much power. Which is why we dig Zonbu (zonbu.com). This tiny PC comes without keyboard, monitor and mouse and costs $100 plus $13 to $20 a month for two years. (The monthly fee is for support and online storage.) It runs Linux (which works just like Windows) and is loaded with most of what you use for everyday computing.
