Linutop PC Keeps Computing Minimal

November 28th, 2006

Not really resuming blogging (although the itch to do so is returning more and more each day) but I couldn”t pass up a chance to mark this down.

Its a dumb terminal, sort of.  As little as I use my desktop Linux box now, this would be a great alternative.  And when we buy a house and I feel the need to webify the whole place, two or three of these would be excellent.  I just hope the price is around $100.

Linutop PC Keeps Computing Minimal -

linutop_polol.jpg It doesn”t get any simpler than this. The Linutop is a small form factor PC that comes pre-installed with Linux, and, well, that”s about it. The PC has no hard drive, video card, or other components as it”s meant specifically for Web surfing only and comes with just enough ports/connections for all the essential peripherals. A number of other pre-installed apps (Firefox being one of them) are also included. Cost and availability are still unknown, but if you”re looking for a cheap, bare bones PC, I can”t picture anyone topping this. – Louis Ramirez
