The system that will run the Windows XP OS shall be the standard Eee
PC 4G, which LaptopMag have been putting through its paces for over a
month. The machine makes a solid impression overall, however, the
disk space is a bit limited to run Windows XP and additional
applications on top. Asus are considering dropping in a 4GB SD card
to aid in the disk space shortage, but nothing has been confirmed to
that end.

I'd rather save the $50.
