I've seen these offered for around $500 in the configuration mentioned. Maybe
a little more, but not $800, IMHO.

As for the speed, I believe it is like a Pentium 75 or 90. I know that Linux
runs on it, I've seen that, and I think NetBSD supports it.

I lusted after one of these for a while when a local guy was offering one
for $400 with no memory or disk, but I've come to think you can get a more
versatile, faster machine by going the x86 route.
