Vista, and a single core cpu, and a single slot of 2gb ram, and an integrated Intel (barely) graphics core?

Not sure who would want this.

Someone who uses this thing just for browsing, Instant Messaging and some Office maybe? Probably be a nifty device for office people having to work on the road. And have enough patience.

Yeah, believe it or not, some people don't mind wiping Vista and using something like Intel's Moblin Linux OS.

Which would be great on this, if the price isn't too much.
