Looks like the manufacturer also does laptops:

Not much mention of monitors on the specs for the PCs, which could
almost double the price.

I do like the spec for the ePC317N:

* Linux Open Office
* 128MB DDR 400 SD RAM

My guess would be that it runs Lindows^H^H^H^Hspire, and 128Mb with
openoffice and an X desktop environment probably isn't going to be much
fun.

Still, it's nice to see them listed.
