Dr_elis:

Unfortunately for you, a third party tester has found that Atom systems use more power than a 1GHz Athlon 64 2000+ system while being much slower. And Atom can't even do HDTV because its chipset is buggy as hell.

I see big lawsuits against Intel in the near future.

I read where the mini notebooks will be dropping to $200-$300 shortly. Right now $300 is about as low as I've seen them.
