At a price-point of $199, less than 1kg of weight, and with a 1.33GHz Intel Atom CPU this really does look like an interesting product for schools, both in developing and developed nations. Since it runs Meego I would assume that on the software side of things getting other Linux distributions to run on it shouldn't be too hard, but others will know more here. Engadget has a quick hands-on video of the X101 which might of interest to some of you: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/30/asus-brings-out-extra-skinny-eee-pc-x101-running-meego-hands-on/">http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/30/asus-brings-out-extra-skinny-eee-pc-x101-running-meego-hands-on/</a> Anyway, I'll definitely keep an eye on this one! :-) Cheers, Christoph </pre> </blockquote> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">-- Christoph Derndorfer co-editor, <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.olpcnews.com">www.olpcnews.com</a> e-mail: <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:christoph@olpcnews.com">christoph@olpcnews.com</a> _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org">IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org</a> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep</a> </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> -- DancesWithCars leave the wolves behind ;-) </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
