I thought the same thing about the actual quantity, I'll check and post back later. Good point about the boot code, and I for one have not flashed a boot prom at all in reference to this project. And seeing as I don't have any documentation on flashing the rom, I'd be speaking out of my ass to say how its done. I'll check IBM's website for some docs and post my findings in a bit.

Out of the box, they don't. I just got one and it is very nice, but I think it requires ether boot code on the flash. The flash memory is *not* provided, but there is a socket for standard CF2 flash card. I think it needs programming similar (possibly same) as Jammin-125 and I don't know first thing about providing it. The person to ask would be Jim McQ., but it is not nice to ask him to help destroy his own business ;-) Another thought, how many are available? julius On Thu, 7 Nov 2002, Joey Officer wrote: > Not to disregard the poor ratings everyone has given them but is this > particular model worth using as a thin client.
