Onlive requires Windows/Mac, this runs on a modified Fedora system.Anyone know if it can run OnLive? I would definatelly get one if it can.
This could become an ultraportable PC! Just attach a couple quid for a mobile screen, a cheapo portakeyboard and there's a full PC!

Well of course, but on Android/iOS the game list is a bit limited. But my point still stands.Onlive requires Windows/Mac, this runs on a modified Fedora system.Anyone know if it can run OnLive? I would definatelly get one if it can.
Actually, along with those, it includes Android smartphones/tablets, the iPad, and was even demonstrated with the iPhone. It'll also be applied to select internet-connected TVs and media players. There is the possibility. It all depends on if the people managing the Onlive service find profit in it.
Awe man thats so awesome. Are these like debugging boards too? Like can you program specially for them and make i do special stuff?

Novelty? Hardly. This is a computer world, and making computers far more affordable for everyone is very much for the greater good. Or it could just be a way for (pre)teens to have cheap access to porn. Whatever.This is quite interesting, reminds me of a similar project, but I can't recall it right now... that said, such a build causes unpleasant implications.
While the board itself is small, it still requires a monitor and some sort of input devices to be connected. If you truly wanted to turn this into a light-weigh portable PC, you're in for some fancy soldering as it is and you'll likely block some of the ports in the process. I didn't pay attention too much, but I don't think that the board had solder points on the PCB that could be used for such a mod so that the ports are intact, did it?
It's definatelly a novelty item... but a Desktop computer, no matter how small, is not something you walk around with often. There should be a clear way to implement an LCD screen and a mini-keyboard into this setup, that'd fix all the issues I see with it.
I'm still amazed that it manages to playback HD video with no stuttering while it plays Quake ]I[ Arena at 10-20 FPS lol, not quite sure how that works.Novelty? Hardly.

Can imagine demo groups being very interested in this, like the aspects of the demo scene where it's all about pushing a limited piece of hardware to its absolute limits. Plus, like I say, when it was all RM Nimbuses in my school we'd use them like computers - looking at code, learning how to interact with the machine on its most basic level. Used to make programs in BBC Basic and RM Basic, but just as I was getting into it Windows 3.1 and then 95 hit and 'computer classes' were all just about how to use Word, how to use MS Publisher etc. You might learn a bit of html, but the architecture of modern machines is so complex and varied it didn't really feel like 'computing' in the sense I'd known it before and I never really continued down that route of spending my luchbreak playing with lines of code to see what they did, which I'm pretty sad about.
