That sounds good then :)  I haven't seen the hardware, I just looked at 
the web site, noticed that they didn't provide much information about 
the specs (and noticed that one of the computers they're offering uses a 
small form factor case), and assumed the worst.  I'm probably too cynical.

I have to admit they've done a good job of making it clear that it's 
designed to be an easy web surfing / email system on the site and in the 
press release.  If they do the same in their TV coverage / any adverts 
they run, then great!
