The 4821 is a 486dx100, with 4 16550's, Realtek 8091 LAN, pc104, 1 72pin simm slot, you can get it with 4mb onboard but its not quite enough (for our application at least). It has a DoC socket, we used the 8mb version and in conjunction with Tinybsd it works quite well - managed to get kernel, ppp,telnet,ftp in/out, our custom app, and all the useful networking tools into about 4.5mb. The most important thing is it works very nicely - fast and stable.
