Seguente Express5800 M1a is small, not necessarily remarkable

There's no doubt about it, the NEC Seguente Express5800 51Ma is very small -- weighing in at only 2.5kg (about 5.5 pounds). The details are surprisingly scant at the moment, but it looks like the minute beast is going to come in two variations: a Celeron 550 model with 512MB of RAM and 160GB hard drive, and an even more tantalizing Core 2 Duo T9300 model with 1GB of RAM and 160GB hard drive. Other selling points? Um... it's supposedly "very quiet." And... yes, that's all we've got. We don't know when or where it'll be available, or how much it's going to cost you, the lucky, excited, noise-sensitive consumer.

They will make Celerons for ever. Yesteryears P4 is todays Celeron and Today Core2duo may in all probability be sold under Celeron Brand name a year from now when Core i7 becomes mainstream

I would like to think these would be good for early childhood education, but, teaching/administration experience has shown me kids work best with emacs because of their all in one design. This would be decent for a 5 - 10 computer setup in a Financial Aid office or a student learning center...but, only if the total price per unit was less than $400. Otherwise, I'm better off constantly buying laptops.
