Well, ark.intel.com lists the Atom x5-Z8350 as "products formerly Cherry Trail". >I wondered what possessed you to buy it, going on specs and 'manual'? >and what the '32GB Storage' might denote. Good thing you could return >it. For reference, just how cheap are they in AU? Something cheap and cheerful as a portable to play on - there wasn't enough information available online to determine whether it would be usable outside Windows. Aldi's "no questions" returns policy was one of the things that swayed me to try it. It was AUD249 but I've found something by "Pendo" for AUD229 that looks like it came off the same production line. I hadn't realised just how weird the insides of some "PC compatible" computers had become. -- Peter Jeremy [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJY2CDVXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXRFRUIyOTg2QzMwNjcxRTc0RTY1QzIyN0Ux NkE1OTdBMEU0QTIwQjM0AAoJEBall6Dkogs0xvcP/2IpffJKR4BXg+QRH9ljGAvV CvCFWDgGA40RqTDHnAQV12jmyxjsNvwhN9QzEuDvFNt/HwA2re0AK265mzY+MKXt LmYsbh+W0GJdB1yBlnGeFdYADyFCW+dNwaji1+zNGuxHE596UsHDEKcWAwwNc5Mc 4ZxsAiXO7DYPn19RT2Ed9wRbz2jiOFo3bqupGJNRivMq+C78X1a1y5Q4+7A6f9XZ prjtMfqqGT8AuL6hX5tBhGNSIgXabhbSYt+Cb3tmZR/COMLASYD872TQfGXcx9Y7 ocqAxa+5ZOKaKOeU/z7OzMuIF67Mu9i0aBuulhSS6SN2rPnxE59nqQxalQwKQUQB JRRHReYfFYxkbtOmDtTpNhhiwmRMJlqbVxIofP1doZcqcWLUmJVssfb75dRvjcSj EjoiyUO0Ct/MHMimPtd6D7zVewlV8O41wjNiAcb6k7qOrBnnoJ9Fe/UaN6KLydH5 86SOgshF1A/B9NvKft1/9U/EBkP9aPnU0YO9FYiM1hZEJkIdsAH7YfaB7QPW15wF VX1CZwm/4wjrts7KXsiQvbl/oCdYIW4AbsUkblMCBJ4hKBGP7xjU9o80KyHNYvwI UI7rOuem7YYqu1Qaa6RlPg3l4CctWnXjPmgRqStQS09UxLYZPXg1hEfSdIOuiNfU 3ZbjDgt6DG4fGwyU+yZY =awyR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
