  the only issue i see is that that netbook is $449 in the US:

http://www.amazon.com/Screen-Lemote-Yeeloong-8101_B-Netbook/dp/B005XH10NQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1319989211&sr=8-2?tag=electronicfro-20

and that strikes me as excessively expensive for a MIPS dev kit.  when
beagles and pandas are giving people sub-$200 ARM kits, more than
doubling that price for a MIPS kit is a big jump unless you can buy
just the board for much less.
