Does anyone know who makes this? Is it possible to purchase one without an OS (I have a low opinion of Lindows)?

I don't believe Balance actually makes these. The other 'Balance' laptops are made by ECS, I believe. ANyway, I wnat a cheap laptop with good battery live, this one looks to have fairly short battery life. I wouldn't mind something C3 based at all.diggingforgold said:I did some digging. The company that makes it is Balance Digital Technology (or "balance" for short). Balance sells other laptop models, and sells some spiffy looking low end desktops as well.
You can check out there stuff at http://balance-digital.com.
If you want to call them and ask if they sell stuff direct, or what other businesses they verdor to, you can give them a call at (800) 242-1922 or email them at [email protected].
But you won't be able to get any type of customized laptop from Wal-Mart, because they buy stuff bulk and sell it as-is.
Ah, yes wallmart is evil. I was hoping that finding the ODM would mean finding another place to buy it (and more detailled specs).ps2cho said:dont buy from wallmart, period.
