| Bartop PC/monitor |
| (1/1) |
| Trimoor:
I came across this one day, and thought it might be good for a bartop project. http://www.linux-hacker.net/imod/imod.html It was originally a dedecated internet machine that the manufacturer sold below cost, hoping that people would buy their ISP. (kinda like the xbox) It's incredibly easy to hack into a normal PC. 180MHz CPU (upgradeable) 32MB Dram (upgradeable) --10" color LCD (800x600)-- Built in IDE connector (HDD not included) 16MB internal flash drive Fast bootup BIOS As a PC, it's pretty dismal, but it would make a great MAME computer. Or you can just use it as Oh yeah, you can get it on ebay for less than $100!! Anyone tried this? |

Ah, the I-Opener. Haven't seen this since the last time I went to my best friends house. They use them as 'net kisosks around their place. I *should* have gotten a couple back when they were introduced. Who couldn't beat the deal for $35 for a computer w/sound AND an LCD? Have to hack in a hard drive, but so what? |
