Hercules shows off new netbooks with ARM chips and Linux
Hercules has been in the business of making Windows netbooks, powered by Intel, for a few years but now the company is going to start making netbooks with ARM-based processors. The Hercules eCafe Slim HD and Hercules eCafe Ex HD are expected to ship in April, for around $229 and $269 respectively. (US Prices) The netbooks have the standard size 10 inch display, but unusually, the display folds down into the body for extra protection. A nice feature, but it does mean a smaller than average keyboard and a wider than average case.
