Ah, I was suddenly thinking about 32MB of RAM. :(
So is the SHB connector on the side at all standard? e.g. Would it be
possible to adapt other SHB stuff (perhaps from the evaluation boards?) to
it?
Seeing how basic the broadband adapter is makes me think a cheap one
PCI slot adapter could be built. And with a "passthrough connector to
still allow the broadband adapter, I would have a 40GB ide drive. :-)
Ok, maybe not so easily.
