My plan was to go the legal route, so it looks like I wont be going virtual machine route.

Shipping: expensive from here. I would need all of the hardware shipped to me here in Japan:

* computer
* monitor
* all-in-one laser printer
* webcam so they can skype (pray that it works with Linux)
* wireless keyboard
* wireless mouse

Do full integration and testing.
Disassemble everything and pack for delivery.
Pay to ship the whole thing (hundreds of $$$).
Pay appropriate customs fees and taxes.

And finally when it all arrives in the US, my almost 80 year old parents get to try to reassemble the whole thing.

No.
That wont work.

I really need to make it really clear to people that we do not want neither Windows or Linux.
