Engagdet has a nice photo gallery and some more info from the press<br>

</blockquote></div><br><br></div>Good specs. For $300, it's certainly a contender. Even better would be to sell it as bare hardware without the OS and perhaps the HDD, but that's really only useful to people like us, so I expect that's not likely to happen. :) Looks nice too. If all the hardware is supported in Linux, that would be interesting indeed. <br>

</blockquote></div><br>While there may not be a bare hardware versions, if the earlier leaked information about the "hornet" is accurate (<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/31/ion-based-acer-hornet-nettop-specs-leak-out-1080p-hdmi-playback/">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/31/ion-based-acer-hornet-nettop-specs-leak-out-1080p-hdmi-playback/</a>), there will be different versions. However expecting there to really be a $150 version may likely just be wishful thinking. Not that i would complain if it did happen though, the standard version seems to have sufficient specs for a nice frontend.<br>
