The Gecko Edubook looks interesting, with apparently decent specs for a laptop that runs on 8 rechargeable batteries.
| Quote : The Gecko EduBook is modular in that the CPU and RAM are on a removable module so that future upgrade can be made available by simply upgrading the module. The system uses AA size cells which are easy to source and much less expensive than buying proprietary battery cartridges. There is no bulky power adapter. The power supply is built inside the Gecko so that all you need to carry is a power cord. |
Anyone know about this XCore86 CPU? More details here. Maker promises a $200 price.
