A few weeks ago I built a new PC for my MIL using one of those MSI Wind barebones systems, with a 160 GB 5400 RPM disk, DVD-RAM, and 2 GB of RAM. It runs XP fine. Linux should be even nicer. One thing to note is that out of the box, the Compact Flash slot on the mobo is Disk 0, even if there's no CF card in it. As a result, XP installed itself to E:\, rather than C:\. So far this hasn't been a problem except when installing Flash. There might be a way to change this in the BIOS, however. I posted a review of the system I built here: http://blogostuff.blogspot.com/2008/12/msi-wind-pc.html I think you’re going to like that.
