I agree. This looks great -- it's what I was hoping the "ultralight" Macbook would be, until it turned out to be 'premium small' rather than 'stripped down and cheap small'.
Something to mess around with, websurf from the couch while watching TV, etc. I think there's a huge market for something like this, as long as it's well-executed. Cheap and middling performance is okay, huge corners cut is not.
Unfortunately I'm just not willing to deal with Windows more than I have to, but perhaps it's time to see what the latest and slickest Linux distros are. Something lightweight, pretty, and fast fast fast. Hard to believe I haven't run a Linux desktop in over 5 years now, after doing it for 8. It would be interesting to see how things have changed (or haven't).
