The 4GB version is supposed to be $200, 8GB is $300.

I read on another site that it is Windows XP compatible. I'm not sure about Vista, though. Also keep in mind it doesn't come with an optical drive, so you'd need an external USB drive to install the OS.
I don't know about noise. Might have to wait for an SPCR review.
The only thing I'm worried about is build quality. I agree that for $200 they must be skimping somewhere, and this seems like the most logical place to cut costs. Hopefully the thing is at least halfway sturdy.
