ftp://ftp.plathome.co.jp/pub/OBSAX3/Documents/OBSA_UsersGuide_1.0.0.pdf seems to be the (Japanese) user guide for it. Now, erm I don't know any Japanese at all, but there are lots of very pretty diagrams in there. But the picture on 4/24, and table 1.4 on section 6/24 shows the OBSAX3/4/x with an Armada XP, 1.33GHz dual core, 1GB SDRAM, a SODIMM that takes 1 or 2GB (more??), SATA2, Mini PCIe, 4 (!!!!) GigE, eSATA, 2xUSB2, and 2xRS-232C. Very nice! Pity it says available in japan only. > i'm including arm-netbooks because there may almost certainly be > people on that list who would be interested in a group buy. there has > been quite a bit of interest in getting hold of modular computing > devices for rack-mounted server usage.
