How about the ELC? There are a couple on the ebay.com auction block. One is $30.00 with 0mem and 0hd. It appears that it should be supported in s/linux. And if I understand the specs I read, it takes standard 72pin simms (like those in my pc), correct. Also, they come with a built in monitor - right? Anyway, how does it function, and is it worth messing with. TIA, Chris
