I use Ubuntu a bit, but haven't tried the zoom feature, so I can't help there. There is no hardware reason limiting the ability to zoom, though. I run Mac OS X on the MSI Wind netbook, and the zoom feature works without a problem - hold down two keys and + or - to zoom in or out.
The forums for particular netbooks manufacturers would probably have an answer for this, like eeeuser.com for Asus or msiwind.net for the Wind.
I am not sure if the netbook has enough power to run it but here is a link for you to try. newtoubuntu.wordpress.com/tag/enhanced-z....
I'm visually impaired and would need the ability to zoom like on a mac, in order for a netbook to be usable by me. The windows magnifier could be labeled "might as well not exist ware.". I know the "enhanced desktop zoom" feature in ubuntu requires decent graphics hardware.
Does anyone know if any netbooks will support it? Also, on a desktop you hold down a key and scroll the mouse wheel how is it utilized on a netbook? A key and trackpad possibly?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
