You will probably want to upgrade RAM to 2GB if you can in order to be able to run modern apps. Swapping in an SSD would help a lot too.
Yer I already have been searching for a 2 GB RAM stick.
SSD, dun got the money for it when I get the thing but it's next on the list.
At the end of the day, though, you are going to be paying through the nose for an outdated machine that you can pour money into and see no appreciable benefit from.
As a hobby, though, it's great because that thing'll take you hours and hours and hours to get working right.
Dun care much, As in the OP, I like the design of it and it having a fully fledged OS.
Besides the physical keyboard is a must (can't stand touchscreen keyboards)
And yer, I got plenty of time so fiddeling with it for hours on end won't be a problem xd
God no.
I'd rather set it on fire then install that monstrosity to it.
Puppy Linux ftw!
How much are you paying for it?
If the seller responds (and hopefully still has it) 120 quid c:
Hardly been used + all the stock accessories are included.
I had to look up what the hell a UMPC was....
After finding out what it was, I remembered reading about them. They looked interesting but very niche.
Not small enough to fit in a pocket so phones beat them out for portability and not large enough to compete with a laptop.
I guess tablets kind of ate into what little market these things might have had?
They kind of remind me of the Atari Portfolio.... lol

I actually wanted one of these things when they where new, would have made my long bus rides go by a lot faster.
Ahah, yeh not many people have heard of it indeed.
Welp I still got large pockets in me jacket and it seems like it just fits in me pockets of me sweatpants.
But since I'm almost never outside, I dun need to have it fit in me pockets.
Tablets blow chunks imho.
Overrated and annoying (I prefer a physical keyboard over a fancy smancy touchscreen, call me old but meh)
Never seen the Atari Portfolio.
Looks quite neat for an '89 device!
