That's definitely hard to beat, both in price and hardware wise being
nearly ready to go right out of the box. One issue that I've discovered
with some of these mini-notebooks is that models with "flat" keyboard keys
(no slight bevels to the edges) make it very hard to touch-type because
you can't always feel where the keys are.

The problem is you can't find something for 1/3 the price to get 1/3 of the
hardware

for example, is $75 (incl shipping) for a whole computer with 7" LCD
What I was looking for was something really small to lug around when I
have to stick something on a serial port in the back of a rack. Looks
like this will work just fine with a USB serial dongle. On 8/25/12 5:41 PM, Tothwolf wrote:
Both of those have about 3x the amount of hardware compared to what I
described. That almost sounds like you are describing a
Raspberry Pi
or a oLinuxXino-mini
