Greg,

XC is a function certained (or limited), easy to use, stripped down PC. $199 XC is designed to target the people who could not afford PC before.

Acer has been developping some DOS applications, specially on kid eductions, on their own for many years. Acer might already licenced DRDOS in one lot at very low cost. For DOS systems, 4 or 8 MB should be enough to run all these cool and free DOS applications.

The price for NSM's NS486SX is $25. I suspect that NS486 might power the $199 Acer XC. We should learn about its details in a few weeks. XC and Cyrix's 2H/98 128-bit MXi might knot Intel from its chair.
