Photos of thin client running

Michael Dale
Here are some photos of one of my IBM Netvista N2200 8363 thin clients running a hacked version of linux

I should write up a quick how to as the info on the site isn't great. I was very surprised at how fast the system runs.

Have they got USB (i.e. could you plug in a USB hard drive and make it an MP3 player or even just to expand disk space and make them more usable as desktops?) 2: Comment Link

Minor usability bug there... 3: Comment Link

They have 2 USB ports (and you could plug in a USB hub). People have put 1GB CF cards in them. Although my plan is to run the MP3s via NFS or HTTP. 4: Comment Link
