General TC > Tiny Core Netbooks
Suggestions for purchasing a Netbook?
curaga:
I would recommend a Brazos (E-350) one. Beats Atom in both cpu and gpu for the same price.
It should work fine on current TC, not counting Xorg. Accelerated graphics w/ Xorg would need to wait for TC 4.x.
edit: Talking open drivers of course. Latest Catalyst would work fine on current Xorg.

I second that. The AMD E-350 is more than double the speed of the Intel Atom N455 and about the same speed as the Intel Atom D525.

Are you aware that TC is not at all GNU/Linux?
(Of course it could more or less become GNU/Linux by adding extensions.)

Yeah, I know that it doesn't have all of the GNU tools, I guess that I should have been more specific ;).

Actually last time I checked, I found exactly one GNU executable ('locale'). A developer might possibly confirm or correct that.

Does that mean it does NOT run `mc` : Midnight Commander ?
Previously I installed something, which 'started' with <busybox>;
and I had to write my own 'skelaton-mc' in `ash`.
I can't tolerate groping around the file-tree, using `ls` & `cd` !!
Could I load the apps to my 'HP Mini 110' via it's 8GB CF?
Cloud usage is not possible for me.
An Oberon [V4] user refered me to this TC, for possible use to
run Oberon-V4; which I currently do under GNU/linux [although I
prefer ETH-Oberon S3]. I'm wondering if TC can run any Oberon,
if TC is not GNU/linux ?
BTW I much prefer the Oberon TEXT based method, rather than the
US tendency to use cartoons.
Thanks for any answers.

There are many GNU addons.
Midnight Commander is one of them.
Use AppBrowser to view what is available.
