Have you reviewed this product, Belial6?  I am curious where you are getting the "very good" information regarding quality.  It may very well be top notch quality, I'm just curious if you have used these machines.  The C-USA/Apple comparison is just too hysterical, not touching that with a 10 foot pole.  I have asked questions repeatedly to people about this product, all went unanswered.  I'd be happy to shut up if I could get some answers to questions I, and others - are asking.

Windows runs horribly on Atom powered PC's.  I own several of them, and only use them under Linux or a stripped XP booting directly into WB via WinUAE.

Apple has the Macbook Air for countering the PC netbook market, and it's a stunning piece of hardware as long as your needs do not exceed what it offers. I own one and run Win7 on it, and I love it.  Comparing a netbook to an iPad is silly, completely different devices to anyone that's used either.  Netbook offers far more functionality, iPad is simply an appliance running a kiosk like OS.

Curious what sort of support is offered to people that purchase the C-USA 64 pc's when people completely foreign to Linux have issues.  Even the big name makers support Linux horribly, and face it - 90% of computer users these days don't know anything but point and click, *nix command line stuff is an acquired taste.  Asked that ages ago on their forums but the question was deleted, lol.
