You may be expecting that this day would never come in your life, but you believe it or not, the dainty mbook M1 of UMID are quite near to be shipped around the globe with their $765.78 (for Windows XP) and the $659.42 (for the Linux) price tags.

They will be available with an 8GB micorSD card and at this point you may have to think twice whether you can live without having one of them for your Linux or Windows XP model.

So, you have your chance to pullthe trigger before Monday, as there is a weekend ahead that may be full of remorse. What have you decided to make the most of it?
