Our jaws dropped (literally) when we first received an email about linutop. I think your’s will too.
Basically, linutop is a mini (very mini) PC which has been designed to reduce maintenance costs. It runs on a linux operating system and there are currently two models on the market. Linutop 1 runs the operating system from a 1G external USB memory stick and the linutop 2 has an internal 1GB Flash memory.
Based on the company’s website, these unit have been designed for digital signage use. Our hands are itching to get one of these units to play with and can’t wait until we get one.
