Jim, Re: You have to compare it with their other offerings

Based on the information in the press release, I find it
totally un-attractive. My NEC is also a full featured
Multimedia notebook and selling at very attractive
price.

Remember, MediaGX is a 486 generation (5x86
based design) CPU, no one wants that. MHz is
not enough. From my experience, a 486DX100 is
much much slower than a Pentium 100, I believe
5x86 would behave the same.
