I would like to add that thet are available in ANY retail store that sells anything related to tools. Common sizes are 8mm, 10mm and 12mm for example.

I know this is not related, but failure rate for soekris boards are close to 100% in three years. I'm not sure if problem is with power unit that they use, but very soon everything starts to fail and magic smoke comes out of soekris.

Why do you think VIA only produced crap? I only remember one bad chipset from them.

Getting help from real doctor could have helped too.

Mandatory in Finland also, can't recall how many years already. But it's not just that, you can also take your old electronics to local dump and recycle them for free. This also works for all other household item's that can be recycled, like old car batteries. No reason to throw them into river or park at night.

And when using just digital output, there is no difference at all anymore.

I'm running Windows 8 preview edition on my old Atom tablet. Metro works really well and i was amazed that it works with just 1GB of RAM (sure, more would be better). There are still some things missing, but it's very fast and way how apps are designed, makes it easy to port them for WP8 devices. I'm not big fan of Microsoft, but they could be on to something this time..

I didn't read your reply, but that was just the information i needed.

I didn't read article, summary or even comments, but i would like to know how well Raspberry Pi would work as thin client?

I think this is all part of Valve releasing their own console in next few years. Yes it runs Linux.

Birth control.

Article says they require $2 self test kit in every car. Well, here in Finland, they are actually thinking of installing device to car that would not allow car engine to run unless you regulary (15 min -> few hours) test your alcohol level. This device needs to be installed in EVERY car, new and old.

I'm told that it's legal to own jamming device in UK, but using it is illegal.

What are you talking about? Big part of your iOS and Android applications are already running in WebView. On desktop browser, think about Facebook and Google Apps. Web applications today have nothing to do with 90s Java or ActiveX crap.

I'm too looking for tablet that would run just HTML5/JS web applications. Browser autostart is must and system needs to be locked so that you can't easily get to undelaying operating system (when normally using application). We currently do this with stripped down Debian that simply starts X and Chrome (fullscreen, with some plugins).

It works very well but now there is severe shortage of sub $500 x86 tablets. I'm trying to find tablet similar to ExoPC (or WeTab), but i have only found few POS 'superpads' that are very low quality (grayish plastic screen etc.). On the other side, there are many expensive indrustial type tablet, but they are too heavy and expensive.

Our application could run on ARM tablet, but rooting and hacking Debian into easily available Android devices is too hackish. When i saw information about Linux tablet called Spark, i was excited until i noticed that it's just on of those useless 'superpads' from china (meaning, there is no 3G or 10.1" screen... or anything).
