1GB is more than plenty, assuming you know what you're doing. I have my laptop doing a lot more stuff on 1GB than what the average user does on 2GB.

I HAD one gig and it ran perfectly. Now it's split 50/50 between 2 computers, and is very laggy.

I have been planning on building a umpc out of one of these for a few months now. I already have the 9 inch widescreen LCD for it and I am trying to decide how I should do the case for it.

I have half a gig. :mrgreen:

That board looks pretty sweet, but it'll likely cost almost as much as a UMPC on its own.

No, it's been stated it's 500-750 dollars. Sure, it's expensive, but still cheaper, assuming you have some spare computer parts lying around.

Actually, some UMPCs are under $1000. I don't think you could get a good screen, battery, hard drive, and make a good case for under $500. It would still be awesome to do, don't get me wrong, but its not really a ton cheaper than a commercial UMPC.
