- I needed a secondary "couch" device (laptop/tablet), with Linux support

Would I get one again? I almost bought another one for a relative, but lack of native Skype client turned me off.

Alabalcho, thanks for the answer, I am considering a couch device, unfortunately I think I might need a backup computer, just in case, so I guess its the perfect solution.
