Interesting find, Bobby! 

    $109.00 loaded with SUSE, 50W power supply, 1 GB RAM 
(with expansion to 4 GB), 1 GB SATA disk module, no wifi, 
no modem, 10/100/1G ethernet, about 9X9X2.2 inches. 

    lack of storage implies cloud (internal or external) 
use, e.g. browser-based email and web surfing for home 
users. 

no MSFT tax and low power consumption.
