inhabitat.com — This green PC comes in a small, affordable package weighing just 10.5 ounces and consuming no more than two watts of power. The triple-core processor only has one fifth of the components of traditional computers, boots-up in 20 seconds, and promises to be faster than Vista and mac’s OS-X.

"This thing has to connect to data centers which are then sucking ridiculous amount of power to do the same calculations"Um dude? Datacenters do power management MUCH more efficiently since their servers are constantly running 100% CPU usage for the power they consume. Most data centers manage power MUCH more effectively than the same volume of home PCs. This will indeed be a net power efficiency gain.

Now all it needs is a screen, battery life, and an SD slot.

My guess is that he's calling all those Flash game playing idiots out there "gamers." Sorry, but without a video card (or any real video hardware, for that matter), this thing ain't cuttin' it for real PC gamers.

before it says 256GB it says 256MB! Plus now they have fixed the mistake so the entire article says 256MB so maybe its not my literacy we should be concerned about

There is a real market for these but I would prefer an x86 CPU. This is a perfect thin client for remote desktop applications if they can get it under $200.00.
