Take a look at this thing in China:
http://www.electronista.com/articles/10/03/31/macbook.pro.clone.with.atom.shows.up.in.china/
From the article:
14.1" screen
1366x768 resolution
1.6/1.66 Ghz
HDMI output
1 or 2GB RAM
VGA output
This is one x86 machine I like, a no frills Macbook Pro!

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

This seems to be a regular practice in China. Here are two more:

Too bad Chinese are not interested in making Amiga clones.

Good. Another crack in Mac's "armor." Maybe this will be the thing that finally gets them to open up their market, especially since their ain't squat they can do about China, unlike Pystar... sadly.
Ain't holdin' my breath, though...

heh... in China... do you think they use LEGAL versions of development software, CAD, etc? They get to compete on the lowest price and use pirated software for development. I'm not saying ALL of them...
try that in the USA.

I like how they don't fudge around RRPs. They keep knocking $5 off every week to keep people interested.
