Is this Wireless?
Well I'm open to using LINUX any day. My exeprienc wit it on teh PC110 was
less than productive.
I would prefer to use LINUX myself, but I think maybe I'm just not that
LINUX savvy to benefit from it on a PC110.
To get Ethernet all I do is plug my Xircom parallel port ethernet adapter
(ok, I use the port rep) and bam! I am on my LAN, I can administer my
domain, do my sys admin duties, telnet into AIX boxes & do everything I
need, I can also dial up & telnet, ping, yadda, yadda...
I also run my network monitor utilities, and packet sniffers, etc... This
way I can be in my computer/data room & not have to lug a laptop to connect
directly to my switch or a router.
Believe me, I am open to LINUX, I just haven't seen the glory as far as teh
PC110 goes unless they are doing some "next level" stuffs taht are beyond me.
fill me in...
Explain how I can get a LAN connection without the Port replicator, irDA???
Does your Infared work under LINUX?
How about the phone? (i.e., dial up a call via a PIM & talk...)
I hear the soundblaster works.
I have a RedHat 5.1 CD in my bag just burning to be installed in another PC...
peace...
