    You can get linux running on a ham sandwich if you tweak the bootloader.

      Would it run DOOM though?

        Runs well on my John Deere Tractor. Their new model combine harvester has 3dfx Glide support so might support Quake too.

          This sounds like voodoo to me

          • @cyssero: I had a few of those back in the day. Even a 2d/3d banshee

              @Snoots: I had the original with pass through, found in a bargain bin at HN. Combined with my 2MB S3 ViRGE. I think the only time I could really get it working was in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit and it added some rain effects and dirt to the windscreen.

                @cyssero: Yes, I remember having to to loop back the cable to the primary GFX card. which was either a Cirrus Logic or ATI Mach 32/64 at the time.
                If i remember correctly the S3 Virge was 2d/3d card also that ultimately failed?

            @cyssero: Voodoo - man, how good where their 3dfx accelarator cards back in the day!?!?! Should never have sold the ones I had and kept them for the history cabinet!

              @mickyb80: I even had a Matrox Mystique before the Banshee. Both had very good 2D Windows 95/98 performance. Then Jensen Huang arrived and TNT'd the competition.

    CPU released in 2016…benchmarks are not encouraging compared to this deal

    • Holy shit haven't seen an atom in years

    Just be aware that this is a 10 year old processor and the device itself is very old. I'd pass

      Back when we were all rocking the Pipo X7. I still have mine somewhere and remember having to get a thick thermal pad for cooling.

      • Yep, definitely. I used to review a tonne of these devices and have most of them in storage. The X7 was a really unique device - particularly for the time.

    Considering you have been able to get modern device that performs significantly faster for cheaper in the past or even currently for $30 more it’s not a bargain at all. Note that these devices too have dual NICs and more display outputs — the I/O here is lacklustre for the price
