Re: linutop novelty item or ?

I tend to think it's a little high priced for what you get. At current
exchange rates, thats $510.88 US. By comparison, the EeePC that ASUS has
out has a faster processor (700 vs 900MHz), twice the ram, 4G flash
drive inside, display, keyboard, battery, etc, for $111.00 less.

I think if Lintop mounted a 4 - 8G flash drive inside, doubled (or
quadrupled) the ram, and cut the price in about half, they might have
something.
