Hi Greg

I don't seem to have the exact version number handy right 
now.  I'm going through a web crisis that will take a few more 
days to sort out.  This high speed microwave stuff is nice 
compared to dialup but it does increase the issues by a 
factor of xx at least.

Any of the mini-ITX boards that use the via unichrome 
driver on board seem to play fairly well with the real time 
kernel.  I do prefer the via processor because of the very low 
power required to run them.  I go into the bios and turn off 
a bunch of stuff like legacy USB and audio.  I also turn on 
boot on power so that I only have to jumper it once to power 
up.  

I'll try to find a link to the specific board I've had good 
success with and post it.

I like the Mini-ITX on a shelf inside a NEMA rated enclosure a 
lot for shop installations  I also add one of the new snap in 
micro power supplies and it makes a fantastic compact 
arrangement with very little heat.

Not a bad idea.  I have a PC that I would like to put through the 
bandsaw!  John nice blog.

Dave, do you know where I could find out which Jetway board that Ray may 
have used?  I did a quick search but I didn't find anything.

Thanks,
Greg
