It's a tiny linux server that plugs directly into the wall like a night-light called the SheevaPlug.
It has:
512MB of DRAM
512MB flash storage
gigabit ethernet
USB 2.0
1.2GHz CPU
Nice little device - I'd love to see how folks plan to use it.
- RK 18y agoIt's like the server equivalent of the netbook.
- TweedHeads 18y agoThat's how the next mac mini should be.
- nazgulnarsil 18y agoi'd prefer an SD card slot to the built in 512MB.
- jrockway 18y agoI agree. 8G cards are under $20 now.
- blasdel 18y agoIt'd be great if it was significantly cheaper, with much lower specs: <128mb RAM, 100mb ethernet, ~300mhz CPU, etc. As is it's ridiculously overpowered for it's niche, and at $99 it's too expensive to be 'throwaway'.
- wmf 18y agoThose specs are pretty similar to a hackable wireless router or a Gumstix. There are plenty of slow embedded devices available already; I like this one because it is powerful.
- krschultz 18y ago300mhz ARM5 != 300mhz Intel Pentium II in performance. I work with a 900mhz ARM11 and it's pretty weak. Seems like a lot of ram though.
- jodrellblank 18y agoIt's a reference design for the above.
