I think the geode+ddr that you are referring to is the AMD Geode GX2. It's being sold in India (typically together with broadband packages) as the basis for a low cost computer called the AMD PIC. It's priced at USD$185 without a monitor and has DDR330 128MB RAM, 10GB hdd, audio, [EMAIL PROTECTED] video. It's a 400MHz part, the GX533 label, I think comes from it's "equivalent performance" measurement.
and no ethernet, sigh.
The PIC is part of a marketing campaign called 50x15 "affordable Internet access and computing for 50 percent of the world population by the year 2015"

We've been approached at times to design similar platforms for the 3rd world. A x86 Linux machine with LinuxBIOS that also supports M$ with enough power to run basic apps (word processing, browser, MPEG etc.) and is real low cost <$100 and is as idiot proof as possible.
