They used a PC/104 style board (x86 work-a-like), Also this company is based in South Haifa Israel, might have shipping issues

Ask them. Would you run Red Hat or some unknown distro on this? Of course not.



Ian has been compiling all the hardware known for certain to work with Puppy on the wiki

It is now up to manufacturers to prepare for the growing Penguin market.

I am looking for a a new laptop that will not cook and shrivel my bits. In other words runs cool. Fast I got. Hard drive? No thanks. I want Puppy on a flash card and data on USB and a battery life of a couple of days. What is this rocket science? Nokia with a keyboard? Modified Sidekick III?

Do the manufacturers need schematics?

That is really cheap - I emailed them an inquiry.

They have very useful and cheap devices. The recently announced device is the AMD Geode LX800 (x86, so it will run Puppy). It's just queer that they never reply to inquiries - someone could try giving them a ring...

They have contact lists for representatives in various countries.
I inquired of their Canadian rep of costs and availability.
I'll update if/when I hear from them.
