Re: [Astlinux-users] Jetway JBC373F38W Atom D525 Fanless Appliance

[John N. <jn...@co...>]

Though slightly off topic, as many on the list don't use the HP Thin Clients due to a singe NIC:
I have had some of the older HP 55xx series fail after more than 10 years in service. ( And they were used when first put into service with AstLinux! )
Seems the quite familiar "dome top electrolytic" failure found in many desktop motherboards shows up in the TC as well.
Just had to replace one using astlinux .5 with Asterisk 1.2!
So far no long term failures with the 57xx series though.
No failures with the Flash yet. I used to use a CF card in an adapter, as these have a 44 pin IDE male connector on the MB, but long since moved to a larger flash that is a direct replacement.
