These days Leo goes through his netbooks the same way he goes through his netcasts - lots of them.  After his Asus Eee PC (Episode 447) and MSI Wind (Episode 762), the latest addition to Leo's line of netbooks is the Samsung NC20, with the following specs:

Leo likes the Samsung NC20 (having made quite a number of upgrades), and hulu plays fine on it.  For major reviews of the Samsung NC20 on the web, check out the links on TestSeek.

The First Letters Jingle: An Encore

Andrew Rodriguez welcomes Leo home, and wants to remind everyone of the very first Letters Jingle.  He is good enough to attach the jingle to his email.  Dick and Leo can't remember who was responsible for it.

It's the Finnish Letters Jingle, by Henrich Antonin from Finland.  Billed by Dick as the jingle with the "big finish", it was played from Episodes 151 to 160, and superseded by George Wood's Letters Jingle in Episode 166.
