Can't do anything other than everything on the internet. It also has a guest account that makes sense. You could hand the laptop to anyone and they could install anything they wanted and have 35 toolbars in their browser. You just log them out and its all gone. Would you ever let strangers have access to your windows laptop? Would you care if they were adding plugins to the browser or installing random applications?
