OMG wow! that was awesome. seriously though, what use is a computer with poor performance?
its so small windows xp cant fit on that little thing. and I dont see why it would be valueable. I can see really old computers with the same performance cost a lot of money because they're old. but why this? and what was the point of its existence?

exactly!! that's why it's called the smallest Linux computer in the world

it's more of an exersise of "we did it because we could", rather than anythig else i would imagine. i mean it's a pretty amazing feat.

According to the website, it has a webserver on it, so it could be used for a quick and dirty webserver...

maybe you have some info you want people to browse through at a lan party or some thing, plug that in and your all set
