PC In An XP Box

Posted by Hemos on from the teh-joy-of-machinery dept.

wolrahnaes writes "There is an article up on mini-itx.com explaining how to fit a fully functional PC based on a VIA M10000 EPIA board in to a Windows XP box. The author even explains how he then fit it in to a Red Hat box and used a sensor to tell the bootloader which OS to run based on which box it is in."

    That's true for most of the population, since most XP installs are preloads.

    I have to wonder why everyone thinks that paper and computers are a fire hazard. I've never seen the little stickers on my ram, cards and motherboards burst into flames.

    The average case temperature is 35deg C. Paper, wood, tinder, sawdust, none of it will burn at 35deg C.
