I posetd this in general but incase you guys missed it - I would like to know will this run bmax? http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4044 7" colour screen (800 x 480) Chipset Intel mobile 512 MB ram 4GB (SD card memory/ MMC) Linux based USB ports Wireless enabled (802.11 g) Ethernet 10/100 VGA port supports upto 1280 x 1024 Firefox Built in webcam Battery life 4 hours voice recognition You Tube videos do playback ! iPod compatible 2 Lbs in weight Seems pretty fast to boot up (under 10 seconds) shut down in 5 seconds. Plays MPEG 4 video - mp3, Open Office is preloaded and Skype, MSN, AOL IM are all compatible. Sounds wicked for under £200 !!!! IPete2. |

Since it runs on Linux, it would be quite strange not to run Bmax. |

The thing I would check out is what it means by Asus customised version of Linux. |

If you can get GCC on it, you should be able to compile up the other packages you need to build Blitz apps - although the 4GB won't last long... I take it you can ramp up the "disk space" by adding a larger SD card? |

I suppose you could have multiple SD cards for different applications or projects, it depends on where the linux is installed to? |
