According to Genesi, the PowerPC-based ODW offers "an anchor for the whole enterprise infrastructure." Optimized performance and lower price levels are the prime objectives

Are they crazy or something? They were saying ODW is 'lowe price' when it costs 1,400 which is 3 times the cost of a usual Pentium 3GHz desktop! And even though ODW comes without monitor/keyboard/mouse.
If you are not looking for new ways to spend money, I don't imagine anyone would buy it?
