This may not be quite true.  The Beagle has integrated memory, and can 
use very cheap
(4G, 8G) SD cards for "hard drive".  The Atom needs to have a memory 
stick added,
plus most setups use a DOM SATA "drive" which is a lot more expensive than
an SD card.  Also, the Beagle runs off 5 V DC, which you might already have
available in the machine control box.  The original Beagle is now $125, and
the Beagle Bone is much less (but missing a few things).
