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 :)
