Looking at the registration page[1], shows two computers with two configurations each:
RAM 24GB 32GB 500GB
Endless Mini 1G $79 $99*
Endless 2G $189* $229*
* Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
If this actually ships, I might buy one. This fits in with my desire to see a computer replace the long forgotten 8-bit price range[2]. Much like Apple PR's foolish Newton claims of handwriting recognition, I don't care for their "internet optional" advertising. A good reminder of just how much text in books and pictures you can put in gigabytes would be fine since I think people forget or never knew.
I would probably order quite a few for the local library.

2) Sinclair for under $100 specifically
- ido 11y agoThe 1982 £99 zx spectrum would cost £340 (almost $500) in today's money, when accounting for inflation[1] - well within the price range of "conventional" budget PCs. [1] http://inflation.stephenmorley.org/ http://inflation.stephenmorley.org/
- protomyth 11y agoThis comes every time, and $99 is still the price point people shot for smart phones. I know there still is a huge difference from a kid's perspective of the over / under $100. I can assure you that in 1982, I would have a had better chance of getting my Dad to buy me a Sinclair than my nephew would have of getting his dad to buy him something costing 3.43 times as much. [edit] Why when all the other prices have come down in computers do people insist everything's fine because of inflation with the removal of the sub-$200 category when Microsoft and Intel did the most damage to that category.

- protomyth 11y agoGiven the different circumstances, I doubt that.
