PC IN A PLUG

If you thought net tops were cheap, wait until Marvell's pc arrive. Marvell has announced the SheevaPlug, a $99 (Wall-Wart Linux PC )reference design based on the company's own "plug computer" concept. In short, this system plugs directly into a power socket, much like a glorified wall wart with Ethernet and USB ports.

The Plug Computer is about the size of a largish external power supply unit, and the first commercially-available version, based on the Sheevaplug development platform, will use a Marvell Kirkwood processor with an embedded s 1.2GHz, ARM-based Sheeva embedded processor, 512MB of DDR2 memory, 512MB of flash memory, Gigabit Ethernet, and USB 2.0.

On the software side of things, Marvell notes that the SheevaPlug supports "multiple standard Linux 2.6 kernel distributions." That should make running and developing software for the platform pretty straightforward.
And the Linux-powered box draws so little power.

Lets wait and buy this pc.
