The SS10 has easily replaceable CPUs, so it's hard to make a simple
comparison.  I'd expect that you'd get maybe an SM41 type system, with
128MB of ram, and a ~1GB disk?  (am I close here?  I haven't priced
SS10s in a while, the SB100 looks so nice)

If you're lucky, you might be able to find one for about $50 including
shipping.  But they're nearly as rare as hens teeth.
