I've been on travel where I've had to comp something before on a small netbook before. Just because you haven't doesn't mean that people won't.

Same way that I won't use half of what would make a Linux user happy on a 10" netbook at all either.

You don't see how that's useful in a "just in case" situation. I don't see what a Linux lover would consider useful in a "just in case" situation either.
