saw somthing similar on TechTV was $200 USD about $400 NZD or so (excluding
GST ect.) it came with Lindows *sniggers they said it was crap (it didnt
have a moniter either) they thought the $200 PC sucked but this one seems to
look a bit better

i already have a Duron 1gHz server (well my sister has it)
