[-- Attachment #1 --] You should probably also look into the Freetech P6F139: 14cm x 20cm (5.5" x 8"), FCPGA, Firewire, PCI Slot, LAN, etc, etc... http://www.freetech.com/ I don't think it's as cheap as that though. ----- Original Message ----- From: Al Snore To: freebsd-small@freebsd.org Sent: Sunday, April 28, 2002 9:27 AM Subject: FreeBSD & small form factor computers I know a few people seemed interested in small sysem before, so..... VIA has introduced a new 7"x7" motherboard/cpu called the EPIA/Eden You can see it here: http://www.via.com.tw/en/Products/eden_images.jsp These are retailing for ~$100 including board and cpu. The nice thing is that they run without a fan, and at around 500-600 Mhz, while consumer only ~50 watts or so. I'm looking to experiment with Free and use one of these with a 120GB drive as a closet all-in-one file server. Hope someone finds this interesting. I probably should not send this as it is off topic. Feel free to vent if it really annoys you though :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Do You Yahoo!?
