Re: No Free Lunch - as in the price is too good to be true - follow the 
second link provided in the original post to a discussion on problems 
with the manufacturer.  The vendor says they will stand behind the sale 
such that the buyer should not loose any money, but no one seems to be 
sure about the manufacturer, or exactly what actually might be 
delivered.  You pays your money you takes your choice/chance.  Good luck.

As to the specs - that machine isn't going to do a lot, or do it very 
fast, on the Internet today.  Your millage may vary.
