Red Hat commits to MIT's $100 laptop
It also wants open-source developers to help slim down Fedora Core as

unbuntu fits into roughly 1.6GB disk space.
redhat 9 fit into 1.57GB disk space
so ... Whats the real issue here?
My guess, after reading the article, is this: "To keep costs down and
make it more durable, the laptop will eschew a hard drive in favor of
1GB of flash memory, on which the operating system, other software and
all local data must be stored."
I mean hell ... A "feature" complete FC5T2 fits into 4GB diskpace on my PPC.

Perhaps the MIT web site is out of date, but it lists the specs as
500 MHz processor
128 MB dram
500 MB of flash
Looks like the specs for a PDA.
