I was moderately surprised to see the number of "little tiny boards" advertised in it that "Run Linux", which means they should be able to run FreeBSD as well... This mag may be helpful to people who are starting to play with Pico (like me) -- it does seem to be gearing towards embedded '386 uses, plus the usual 8051, etc. designs. I've been working with 8051s for several years, but they do have their limitations.... :) mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
