I have relatives that have less than $2000 anual income in Asia. In fact, when I send them $250 for xmas, that'll buy them (family of 4) food for 2 months, however, I know for a fact that they are saving that money for college tuition for their eldest because they see education as their way out of poverty. IF there were a computer for $250 I'm 100% positive they'll buy one and go a few months with "less" food (even without my help).
Like the article says, its aimed at professional markets such as medical fields. I know plenty of OBs who'd jump at this to add to their 4D ultrasound machine because it'll definitely bring them more patients who are wanting to see their babies in 3d.
Besides, ever wonder why your medical bills are so high?
It's a Medion junker and they expect parents to cough up $900+ for a computer+monitor so that their kids can write on the screen with "markers" because I'm pretty sure the "light pen" only works with specific disney titles. I have enough problem having to clean my CRT monitor everyday.. not sure about trying to get crayola out of LCD.

I got the feeling, from the article, that that it will record in mpeg4 format to achieve 28 days on 400GB and convert to mpeg2 when burning to dvd.
