Triple dare??? Wow. Untwist the undies dude. They were suggestions. Netbooks come complete. An EEE 7 has a 7 inch screen IIRC, the 1000 has a 10 inch screen much like my toshiba. If it doesn't have bluetooth, a simple dongle can fix that and even a PS3 keyboard should work. There are also programs out there to turn half the touchscreen phones out there into a mouse or keyboard. They also sell mini kb with built in thumbstick (like the PS3's) for you to use as a mouse (and wireless to boot). More accurate than IBM/Lenovo little red stick. As for the powerup issue, I claim no expertise whatsoever on the matter, but if I were to brainstorm, there are settings that permits computers to power up via key press. Any key. There is also IR blasters that solve that as well (HP zd and dv series have these features). You can turn the computers on and off via the control. Another option is to put the computer to sleep on powerdown, my Netbook uses as little as 8 watts when on and on eco mode. One sleep mode I assume it shouldn't use more than a couple of LED's worth of juice. My $0.02. Take it as what it is, a suggestion.
