We have learned that 600 Wal-Mart stores are now selling the Everex Green gPC which is powered by the free operating system Linux, and will be priced at just $199. As you would expect the gPC by Taiwan company Everex has a very low spec such as the VIA Technologies low-end processor, just 512 megabytes of internal memory, a small 80GB hard drive, and a DVD CD burner combo.
Everex insist that what makes the Linux-powered gPC green is the use of the VIA Technologies processor which is very energy efficient. Melissa O’Brien, a spokeswoman for Wal-Mart has said that they are now stocking this PC in one in eight stores across the U.S so that they can test the demand for the gPC.

Why install Linux on my PS3 when I can buy a computer with Linux this cheap.
