More details on that laptop, if it piques your interest: http://www.amazon.com/Screen-Lemote-Yeeloong-8101_B-Netbook/...
I've wanted to purchase a Leemote laptop/computer for a while now, and each time I go searching for them I come back empty handed.
That being said, a quick Google search did return valid results this time around, particularly that it is for sale on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Screen-Lemote-Yeeloong-8101_B-Netbook/...
It is a $499 dollar 10.1" netbook that runs at 1 Ghz with 1 GB of ram and a 160 GB hard disk. With a display at 1024 x 600, which is slightly smaller than an iPad 1/2 screen.
If you are into freedom it might be worth it, but i'd have a hard time getting development work done on a screen that small, let alone on something running at 1 Ghz with a single core.
From his usesthis interview: "I do hope to switch soon to a newer model of Yeelong with a 10-inch display."
Also I found it on Amazon, with Prime: http://www.amazon.com/Screen-Lemote-Yeeloong-8101_B-Netbook/... $450.
If one of the known / trusted HN elders decides to pool the money, this seems doable.
