Hmmm, $99 for a 400MHz PPC machine with onboard mem, lan, usb, and
audio.... score!!

That's about £50 in real money at today's rates. Not a bad little beast
for a toy. Would rather it was i586 as it could then fit seamlessly into
my existing NFS root setup ;)

Also don't think they ship to UK but it's still an interesting little board.
