I wouldn't use a monitor anyway - since its got a fully capable X server
and networking on it, not hard to control it from an existing PC.. it
would be, like a router, a useful 'smart box' to do stuff at much lower
power on a 24x7 basis. Like my existing server. Only it has no disk
apart from a flash drive so its not useful as a storage box.
Can you plug in a USB drive and so have a cheap network storage device?
After all my Netgear is a linux box.
I thought it came with linux on the card, btw.
AFAIK It doesn't come with a card. You can buy an "accessory pack"
with a SD card but I'm sure it's supplied empty.
