The Genie and The Idol

A laptop/PC operating on thumb drive instead of hard disk.
Speed comparable to a Pentium 4 processor.
Selling price is ranging from RM500 to RM1k.
Best part is, it's made in Malaysia.
Unbelievable huh?

So, am I suppose to feel proud of this achievement? Call me a cynic, but is this for real? Seriously, do they really work? Anyway, we shall know after three months time.

By the way, they name it "i-Dola" for Laptop, and "Jean-i" for PC. We don't need Einstein to figure that someone is sucking up to the Prime Minister of Malaysia.
Could I help to feel that this product is doomed to fail? After all, isn't our PM's name is synonymous to being a failure?
