...Lindows, launched by dotcom veteran Michael Robertson with the millions he made selling MP3.com, has a few more problems. The bargain-basement $299 Microtel PC comes without a monitor, which will cost you $128 more. If you have a PC, you can pay $99 to download Lindows (at lindows.com).

I was intrigued by its position when I stumbled upon a mention of the Green Plaza Shinjuku in a magazine, but grew alarmed at the cheesy, basement entrance. I ascended to the 10th floor, and was relieved to find the 24-hr. spa clean and respectable. Moreover, it features a real gem on its roof: the rotenburo, or outdoor bath. There's something gleefully luxurious about floating in a steaming hot bath the size of a small swimming...
