Wal-Mart.com's Sun Desktop PCs



I thought that Sun was targeting corporate clients with their Linux disto, but seems they jumped into the consumer waters for $298 at walmart.com:

I have  a few for questions about rich browser clients for anyone who knows the Sun Java Desktop OS:

-What browser is the default?
If it's Mozilla are they including a full Mozilla with XUL

-Are they including Macromedia Flash in their browser, for folks developing Flex GUIs.

-Are they pre-installing JWS?
I suppose this doesn't really matter as it's designed to be self installing from a web page.

I'm interested to see where Sun's new OS fits in to all the current activity around rich Internet application delivery.
