  1. Re:Sounds unbelievable on Incredible Shrinking PC · · Score: 1

    I didn't see where anyone referenced the original source from IBM: http://www.research.ibm.com/resources/news/2002020 6_metapad.shtml

    So it isn't a fake.

    Also, most of the questions raised by posters are answered there, including references to a blade server, the actual disk size, size of the unit, and how it really works.

    <i>Or change the boot order from "C only" to "CDROM, A, hard drive" </i>

    That's a little obvious ;-) The only choice that allow's CD booting is the default CDROM, C on this version of the BIOS. You could flash the bios. <a href=http://www.pcchips.com>pcchips</a seems to be the mainboard vendor and they have downloads.

  3. Re:Better pictures? on Hacking Oracle's $199 Net Appliance · · Score: 3

    Sorry about the pictures, I used my daughter's $100 digital camera. The modem is on a daughter card that mounts to the back of the unit. It could be removed and the onboard modem disabled.

    I don't think you could put in another eth as there aren't any PCI or ISA slots at all. If you wanted, you could get USB working and then a USB eth off that.

    As to routerizing it, it won't be a problem--things are close right now.

    OK, stop moaning. I've changed the site fonts and colors. Any better?
