   Just to make things more fun, I ripped out the PCI graphics adapter
   which the U5 had when I acquired it, threw in a USB2 PCI card (so far
   I've only tried USB 1.x devices like my CF reader, but the card was
   $10, so hopefully our USB2 support advances to the point where it's
   usable :-)) and a Intel GigE card.  Now I just need to get more memory
   than the 128MB the box has :-)


BTW - usb2 disks are reported to work in -current now.  it's a bit slow
but certainly usable and reasonable for "finally works at all" (17MB/sec
was the reported speed.)



mmmm, sil680.
