Indamixx is an unpleasantly-named netbook dedicated to making music—and to keeping a nice sub-$500 price tag. Create Digital Music explains:

It’s a 1.6GHz Atom-based Sylvania netbook with the standard specs running Transmission, a linux distro packed with free and open-source music stuff, including thousands of samples and the ability to host Windows VST plugins.
