How much do these boxes run?
$80.... ;-)
If they aren't quite
cheap, I don't see the point. I repleat with old
harware (i.e. devices with a few GB drives) that could
be used for a similar process--without having to
defeat the original purpose of the hardware.
If they had more RAM, it seems it would be really slick. But MUMPS and
Linux don't need much RAM.... ;-)
Not to say that the device doesn't look super cool,
and it would be a cool hack. Kind of like getting
vista to run on an XBox.
Right. Coolness is the main point. Imagine pulling out this little
tike, attach a notebook drive in an external USB 2.0 case and demo CPRS
from a client... ;-) Frankly, though, you would probably kill the
'sale' since it would be viewed as a 'toy'. So... best to keep it
amongst the diehard faithful.... ;-)

Okay, folks, here is some red meat for the WV
meeting coming up in
October... hack this thing to run VistA on an
attached Flash drive or
a USB 2.0 external harddrive..... ;-)
Google turned up a community forming around it...
Linux geeks love
hardware! ;-)
