Has anyone else attempted this?
* Setup a Linux desktop "in the cloud"
* Remote desktop into the cloud-desktop, as needed
* Use ssh whenever possible
* Use a tablet as your primary interface

Here's a story http://yieldthought.com/post/31857050698/ipad-linode-1-year-later
about a guy doing just that for almost all his desktop needs. Interesting read
for the Linux crowd.

I really liked the idea of 8+ hrs of battery life.

His S.O. doesn't want to print coupons that require a Windows printer driver.
