Hi,
Just for curiosity...
I checked both Sam variants' pricing on
Acube and
Sam sites.
For EP:
667 Mhz cpu, 512 MB DDR Ram, ATI Radeon M9 64Mb and Audio 5.1 onboard
465,00 euro
for EP-Flex:
667 Mhz cpu, no Ram 375,00 euro
512 MB DDR DIMM 100 pin 28,00 euro
Radeon 9250 PCI - 128 MB 36,00 euro
Summing up to: 439 EUR
So it seems, Flex version is not only an upgrade, it is also cheaper (not much though, only 6% off). So I ended up happy - when released, new Sam machine is supposed to cost roughly the same or less money than an old one, not considering some special offers here.
And it makes me think of waiting for the newer hardware.
Or maybe those all figures are just because some must be there??
