Hi all. I've retired my OB classic and am using a
WRAP 1.c board. This is based on National
Geode processor (now AMD). It has 3 10/100
PCI ethernet and a miniPCI slot. I installed
a miniPCI wireless card so it does both wired
and wireless. It's great for SOHO. It has 64M
of memory and has a compact flash IDE. I'm
running my own version uClibc/Linux on it which
runs off a ramdisk. It's really a nice platform
with true embedded BIOS. Of course, if you want
a tiny PC, the OpenBrick or boxes built based
on via embedded x86 boards are good alternatives.
