25 dollar computer coming

remus:
Check this out,

www.raspberrypi.org

Its about a 25 dollar computer being released in about 12 months, they are putting ubuntu on it for now, tinycore linux would be better.

tinypoodle:
It's ARM based...

Ubuntu, Iceweasel, KOffice on 128MB of SDRAM sounds very painful   ::)

remus:
I know, 128mb of ram wont cut it, i've tried ubuntu on a p4 2.2GHz with 256mb of ram and it ran very slow, the test machine I used at work for tinycore linux is even older and slower than that, and it runs tinycore linux ok.

I'll send the developer an email and let them know about tinycore linux, perhaps the guys developing the 2 projects could collaborate.

tinypoodle:
I didn't mean to refer only to ubuntu.

iceweasel and koffice sound painful with 128MB RAM each on their own.

Good idea.

It would be interesting to know how they respond.
