It seems to me that there was something in that article about those slots being
independantly something-or-othered. Powered , that was it. The machine looks
clean, yet I wonder how well the propriatary monitor and stuff idea will catch
on?

Also, about its design. Ok, a 200+meg optical main drive is nice, but wont
a low-storge (or at least cheap) device be needed? I mean, I dont know
of any software houses that will wanna publish on 50$ disks with a word processor.
