Hand-Sized Antelope Windows PC To Debut

Posted by simoniker on from the much-easier-to-lose dept.

securitas writes "CNet's Michael Kanellos reports on start-up Antelope Technologies' plans to launch its Modular Computing Core (MCC) next week. The 'full-fledged Windows [XP] computer that measures 3 inches by 5 inches' is based on the IBM Meta Pad, which Antelope Technologies licensed from IBM. Priced at $3,970, it's expected that the MCC will be primarily for corporate fleets, where mobility is a requirement. Antelope's MCC was previously mentioned on Slashdot, and it seems that the company has beat competitor OQO to real product status. Will the Nimbel V5 be next?"

    It wants its FUD back!

    Seriously, blue screens are a thing of the past. Everyone else moved on four years ago, while Slashdotters are still stuck in the 90s. Why do Slashdotters continue to harp on blue screens? Is that all they have?

    I don't even want to recall all the freezes I experienced when I tried Slackware 9 on my laptop.
