    He did not mentioned that these machines were specifically designed for use in developing countries. It is VERY well designed for this purpose.

    Im having a really hard time with ubuntu, Firefox doesnt work right, I really don’t want to switch back to windows.

  3. ketobi says:

    it looks good but its too pricey

    1st the price is way to much for a cpu speed as slow as this snail/turtle. For that much money just add 100.00 more & you can just buy a mac mini with more then enough cpu speed with a dual core intel cpu. This computer is lame, I would feel like I was a child again working on my Commodore 64 or my TRS80. Heck I think my calculator is faster(haha). These big biz companies just trip me out because they are always trying to rip us off & this one is a joke. People just buy a netbook or mac mini.

    Did you even turn it on and try it?

    It would have been nice to see it in action rather than spend 60sec+ griping about the price tag & specs.

  6. snkjack says:

    more Ram would have been nice..but eh not worth it.

    looks like shit^^

    Seriously, this is the second review of an overpriced tiny-factor system. You guys going to get to the koolu? It has a good price and is better than linutop or this thing.

  15. DavidRGilson says:

    Interesting product, but their claim that it’ll run on solar power is a bit academic when you factor in the power requirements of a screen, that this doesn’t have.

    For “off the grid” probably better off with a low-power laptop and a solar supply.

  16. DavidRGilson says:

    An ironic comment since the site you’re saying this on is probably ran on Linux :-)

    let me guess, you one of those people that thinks Linux is good and stable. news flash; it isn’t

  18. ratkumchase101 says:

    Burn in HELL

  19. vahnx1337 says:

    linux is epic fail

  20. alastairthegreat says:
