I finally got the Everex Green PC up and running at the crib. I wanted to see what it was all about. I posted about it when it had first come out here. It is an interesting little pc. It comes with speakers, keyboard, mouse, the full size case, recovery disk and of all things a phone cable. Interesting that it comes with the phone cable considering it does not support dial up, only ethernet. I have only played with it a little bit. I am debating leaving it as it is or putting Ubuntu on it. I also have $50 in gift cards for bestbuy, but they don’t have the ram I need online for the right price. It is roughly four times as much at Best Buy. I want to upgrade the stock 512 ram, but not sure if I really need to for what I will be doing on the computer.
It is not a beast of a pc. It is a little slow loading web sites, but then again it only cost $200 bucks. I currently have it on a kvm switch with a XP pc. I will probably use the linux machine for most of my business needs and the XP machine for multimedia. It is nice to have a pc with Linux on the hard drive again. I have been using the knoppix boot disk at the house and now will just tap ctrl twice to get over to the Linux box. As of right now I am happy with the purchase. Let me know if you have any questions on it.

This was an update post to the one with the specs… What do want from the post? You could have asked a question or responded with a content-loaded comment. But then again, great job with the content-free blogspam yourself…
