The only thing I would describe as a "bracket" is the heat sink, which just comes off by removing the retaining nuts. When that comes off I can directly see the DOM, which is just held in place with one screw. That just un-seats.

I think the could rule of thumb is to think, what would I run on a Pentium 1 / 266? That's essentially what the CPU behaves like. I think it can certainly run all those apps, but not with a fat window manager. > I'm most familiar with Fedora, but I can see your point. > I'd go the DSL route, but it seems from a post above that a distro > using udev has a better chance of catching most of the hardware -- > especially the touch screen -- and last I knew Damn Small Linux was not > using a udev kernel yet.
