The box was built by acer but was repackaged by Netpower. It was their 
Series 100. It still runs NT 3.51 well but I would like to move it over 
to linux ASAP. I have not been very successful in getting Netpower to 
give me any information on the box. I believe it is an older model then 
the PICA-61 because the clock speed is only 100 megahertz....vs 150 that 
I have read in the MIPS FAQ�.any thoughts
