At last...

Great to see confirmation they are using 945GSE and N270 (both the lower power consumption options)... TDP 8W... but what happened to the bigger HD? Earlier reports were of 1gb/160gbHD, 2gb/250gb Linux systems for $299 top price. Sorry but 80gb is something that would need changing to a sensible size on day one for me!

Frankly I was hoping for the 2gb/250gb Linux model at a UK street price of £199 so if this is gonna need more Ram (XP on 1gb, not my ideal) and a bigger HD then it needs to be substantially cheaper...
