sorry. that's the trouble with english. weight as in
mass, not power. if they've got something with the "Hz-horsepower"
that is something cheap/inexpensve, and WITH KYBD, and small
screen, *if*, then if it runs freebsd, yo! i'm go for that
puppy.
the app the speech therapist showed me was a heavy (like > 2Kg)
clumsy, touchscreen dud that used some kind of M$ opsys. if i
can roll my own with bsd that ought to make headlines.
a few hundred bux compared to $8,000: whoa:-)
