"But the British company Elonex is launching the country's first
sub-100-pound compute"
-- so... none of the others were British?

Lets see... this would seem to be the case, even Linutop = estonia. So
it would seem to be typically British too:

"the Elonex One is clearly a rebranded version of the Fontastic A-View,
a super-low-end PC made by a Taiwanese company"



Still, I think Fox has fumbled this one:
"But open-source software has its problems. If no one owns it, there's
no one to complain to when things go wrong — and the One has no
antivirus or firewall software built in."
