Hi Edna...

I believe what you are referring to is called an iToaster. They are, or
were, being sold by Circuit City. Once the Linux people figured out that
you could convert them into a "real computer" with a 10" flat panel, and
bypass the "required" ISP that was being offered, they started flying out
the door and CC pulled them off the shelf. They then doubled the price (was
around $100, now only $200!!) and started making you sign an agreement to
use the ISP. But they are still real hard to find. Goto the Circuit City
web site and search for itoaster, then by region to see if any are in stock
in your area. People were driving hundreds of miles to pick up a half dozen
at a time.
