No. But if there are higher spec'ed machines in the pipeline, it'd be good to hear about them. Yes, Peru is in contact and I will try to start a direct discussion.

Re: [Server-devel] Extreme Linux Server Available to North America
This is cool but what about $$ ? Sorry this question was aimed to determine possible better solutions about pricing, i'm not involved in decisions about money (talking about my country's pilot) but it would be nice to have a reference, because all the schools and pilots are different and this issue is really important for deployments. So anyway i'm investigating this..but is off-topic right now. pardon. martin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel -- Rafael Enrique Ortiz Guerrero One Laptop Per Child [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Rafael Enrique Ortiz Guerrero One Laptop Per Child [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
Re: [Server-devel] Extreme Linux Server Available to North America
Holger mentioned the Plat'Home machines recently featured on Slashdot... Wad and myself looked at the specs recently. Overall, they are good, I think the summary is: - Good kit - sealed, fanless, flash RAM, lots to like... - RAM ceiling is too low. 512MB would be the minimum workable RAM right now. - Shifts the problem spot to the ext HD. At the end of the day, they are not that different from running the XS from an XO-1 HW platform. The upside is that you have ethernet ports, the shared limitation is that you have no internal HD and very limited RAM. If those same machines could be ordered with RAM ranging from 512 to 2GB... instant love ;-) -- add a fanless ext USB drive enclosure and run run run. cheers, martin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
