Nice. And then you can add the $400 power supply.

@Chip

I shouldn't have to read the article... I'm commenting on the blog. If he had permission, it should be posted in the blog entry when making the point that it's idiotic to punish the admin.
Just because it is "one of the oldest and most respected distributed-computing projects in the world" doesn't make it right to use the district computers for it without authorization. Technically, it does cause the computers to use more electricity, it does cause the fans to run more often (fan failure is a major cause of system failure), and it does use "some" of the external bandwidth that might be required by another use at the time--I mean, if 4000 of the systems were running at once and one person was working late to get something done, it might have an impact.

All somewhat minor reasons, but plausible nonetheless... therefore the reasoning doesn't deem being called "idiotic".
Fry's has them on sale fairly often (for something that came out so recently). $199 + our 10% tax.
I admit it. I need these for my PSP Go.
Yes, yes, I admit it, I want it. In "Drop Me A Lime".
Thanks engadget and please fix the comment system!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
