pn51 is limited to 32, but imho better to windows then pn50

holland was underpowered last week, this leaded to no power 2 times with
15 min delay, it was realy low voltage in danmark, just not the whole
danmark, most was limited to the connected cable to holland from
danmark, while rest was no issue, funny problem :)
