I ordered one from www.efficientpc.co.uk. Got it within a week. I subsequently ordered a RAM module from them. It seems to be taking a bit longer. The companies forum does not seem to have happy customers though.
Running Xubuntu on it. Goes like a dream.

Yes, but WHICH week? I ordered one from expansys on Feb. 4 at which
