Take a look at:

	http://www.digital.com/semiconductor/dna.htm

DEC seems to be giving away the design for a 233Mhz StrongARM based
NC.  Specs go something like: 4-64M memory; ISA/VLB/PCI buses; OpenFirmware,
128-512KB Boot ROM, serial parallel game ports, 2MB Video RAM, VGA and TV
compatible video ouput, ZIP drive, 16 bit SB compatible audio.

They are giving away hardware schematics, board layout, enclosure details,
and source for a port of NetBSD 1.2.

The proposed `release date' of April 1st is worrying though :-), sounds
too good to be true.
