It's actually NZ$1499 incl GST and appears to be an ECS A531. DSE claim that everything except 3D video accelleration works under Linux. It looks like a pretty good buy to me. More than anything I suppose it all depends if you fancy a Transmeta CPU or not.

NB. This PC runs Linux. If you find a virus apparently from me, it has forged the e-mail headers on someone else's machine. Please do not notify me when this occurs. Thanks.
