There's a new notebook PC out there, based on "Google OS", which is
LINUX based:

$400.  800x480 display

Anybody know anything about it?
It sez it has 30GB capacity... might it be flash?

It uses a VIA processor.
I think it is x86 compatible, but very low power.

They also have two versions of a Asus linux machine:

$550, 20GB solid-state drive. 1024x600 display, 1G RAM

They also have a $420 version with a 4GB drive, 512G ram, 800x480 display.

Any there other low-cost LINUX (sub)notebooks competing with these?
