Similar story the Linux EEE with www.ebuyer.com even with one unit
per buyer.
The Acer Linux PCs disappeared in one day.
They now bring in 700 new machines today
Wonder how long that will last at 130 pounds for a 3800 Sempron with
512Mb RAM.
For 150 pound eSys Linux machine is coming in with 1Gb RAM and 3.2GHz
Celeron and 160Gb HD.
Thats 3 brands of Linux preloaded PCs Ebuyer is doing
and all just sell out instantly.
