Using AMD and VIA me for they were.

Try to avoid anything branded with the letter 'i'. Over the years, more mistakes, errors, omissions and recalls than a rogue Chinese toy factory. Now they want a share of the ITX market! And at the time that VIA announces the widespread adoption of their 1W (yes - one) 500MHz Eden C7 cpu. No contes...

If I still had it though, Puppy would be running on it, probably dual-booted with Windows 95. Do you have the cd-rom drive of the Co...
