   @nvidiaion based Acer Aspire Revo arrived this morning. Cheap as chips, runs #linux. Up and running in seconds. V quiet. Nice machine.

     @dpkgregor Ebuyer have them for ~150 quid. This came with NO O/S so http://nakedcomputers.org/ would be happy :)

     @popey interesting that a google search for acer aspire revo doesn't yield any places you can actually buy it
