There was a mention of it in The Register last week:

http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2008/04/11/dutch_vendor_touts_jisus_laptop/

According to the article it's based on the Loongson (nee Dragon) CPU 
which is MIPS based. I would almost order one to just to see how well it 
performs.

More on the Dragon CPU over on wikipedia:
