Mine has 512Mb of RAM, cpuinfo reports the processor as a "Geode(TM) Integrated Processor by National Semi" at ~400Mhz and ~800 bogomips, and it has an 80Gb hard disk (yes, an actual rotating one). It came with a rather old Xubuntu, the speed of which was OK, but noticably on the slow side. I've since nuked it in favour of a text only Fedora 10 install, which it runs quite happily, albeit with the i586 kernel rather than the i686 one.
