Lycoris website

[nameless132]

I was just searching linux.org to see all the linux distributions available and i noticed redmondlinux (lycoris.com) and i was a little interested by the rants it was getting due to its user-friendlyness so i dicided to check it out. When I looked around a bit, I noticed they were selling computers with their OS pre-installed. (Good Idea) However with the price of 449$, all you get is a 700 mhz celeron with an integrated motherboard? Maybe it's just me but does anybody else think it's slightly over-priced?
exact specs...

It'd be just a fine price if a monitor came with it, but w/o one, it is a little, but monitors aren't expensive.

Anyway, shouldn't this be in the rants section?

I was debating that but I had a question in it so I put it here...

Is this in U.S. $$$ ? Sorry as I can't tell from your profile as From: is blank.

If so, then it sounds a bit pricey to me. I could get that or better for the same price in Canada. Most of the cost is that 'HP' sticker on the pc.
