the only prob with it is...the cpu, its an atom  ..i learned my lesson and im not crazy about ubuntu..by using that OS they are tailoring it for geeks. if they made it more like a mac mini it could have potential but right now its a novelty item...

We'll they've sold out. I think it will be huge with "The Geeks" because supposedly that's what the founder of FB learned programming with.

I don't know much about ubuntu, but it can run windows 7!
