Amen, my brother. Granted, I'm not their target market, but the OLPC/Eeee variants just confuse me. The Via chip takes me back to when it was much cheaper to build your own pc and you had a choice of Intel, AMD, or Cyrix. To me, Celery (Celeron) is a dirty word. The things don't seem to do a lot more than my Treo (with its 4g SD card). [if there's anybody else using a Treo sync-ing with linux, please contact me] At least it's not just me this time :) -=-=- ...
