We started with a fairly tiny computer, similar to the Gumstix.
I had a development setup on the bench that was running on a mini-itx board. PG convinced us we needed to launch the second my prototype worked, so I literally designed a case around the bench setup and stuffed it into a backpack.
Justin now carries a 2 lb Sony VAIO that runs Windows XP. The technology is simple enough that anyone can use it, and soon they'll be able to.
- dpapathanasiou 19y agoWell, it makes sense from a marketing perspective (i.e. you can tell people who are interested "all you need is a laptop, plus the camera we'll send you", etc.). But have you defined a minimum spec for that computer? I'm just wondering if someone wanted to go the Gumstix route instead of a laptop, would it be possible?
