I find it very interesting that nearly four years ago, when I bought my 
Toshiba Netbook with Ubuntu Remix from Dixons, they were selling like 
hot cakes, far better than the equivalent Windows machines.
Then suddenly, overnight, they disappeared. Now what retailer would 
remove a best-selling line instantly like that, /unless /there was some 
sort of external pressure to do so? ;-(
