Hmmm now that is not a bad idea.. I wonder how it will run on a 4gb version.
I just got one a few weeks ago and other then contemplating setting up a PBX
phone system on it I used it to fix a HD that went bad on me Friday night.
Other then that it has been sitting on my shelf waiting for a project. GOnna
have to check this out..
