It is easy to install GIMP.  Go to

     <http://www.gimp.org/windows/>

download the installer and run it :-)

Right now I'm playing with digiKam <http://www.digikam.org/> (Rei
Shinozuka's advice) and I'm enjoying it.  BTW, digiKam is photo
management program (Lightroom, Aperture), and GIMP is an image
manipulation program (Photoshop).

Enjoy your netbook!
