 Vaporware.  At the top of the web page, it says 'available December
2004', but the minimum order statement at the bottom, and the claim that
it will be shown at a February 2005 conference, lead me to believe that
what they're really saying is "If you give me $10,000,000, I'll tell you
how much computer $100 will really buy you".

Hey, I'll match that offer!
