that thing comes with 256 mb ram...I'd try to play counterstrike if I were you.

Old technology? New revitalised efficient technology.

it's now nearly a $200 laptop - but for the rest of the world the price is almost the same (and they're not sold in the USA so arguing over the price in dollars is a bit pointless)
-
Such old technology being sold.
-
when its in tablet form, the only means of input are mic, camera, directional pad, and four game buttons (plus, obviously, any USB input device you plug in).. I don't like it in that form :/ no real point
-
how so?

jeez dude! look it up! U've never heard of the XO? its a laptop for poor nations. costs 100 bux, and they were running a promotion where you buy one for another country, and you get to buy one for yourself (only way for US consumers to get one)
-
Shouldn't that be a book replacement? ;-)

FYI, there are USB ports on the side of the screen (as well as a memory card slot on the right side) - you can plug in a mouse and it works just fine.
Another thing I found cool when I got mine that I haven't seen mentioned - it actually comes with a app that turns the machine into a software oscilloscope (takes its input from the built in microphone).
Of course it can play doom. Doom is old news. Linux may be free but it certainly isnt cheap. I would like to see this thing run blender.

It's pretty cool. A pity the guy keeps having to reach for the mouse (or what I'm assuming is a mouse). The way it folds over like that is very nice. They should make this available in the west, because people like me would love to get our hands on one, without having to worry about maybe it was taken from needy kids by gangsters.
