further to my previous thread on low power systems the above seems to be
the amd version, rated at about 12w

sent in case it may be of interest to people here, it has linux
pre-installed and comes with webroot internet security which is
compatible with win 7, ?? not sure if there is a linux vesion for this.

cost is £149 which is pretty good too if you prefer amd

Yeah I saw that, thought it was amusing supplying Windows security software when it comes with Linux (not sure what type, possibly Linpus, as eMachines are owned by Acer).

Seems quite reasonable although it's only a single core CPU. Not sure how it compares to an Atom, I'd guess it would be reasonably comparable and it comes with an NVidia chipset so will have things like video acceleration for HD video.
