Ah, yes.

I run Slackware (Linux) on an embedded VIA Eden 400/667 MHz computer that controls my pellet stove.

It uses a CompactFlash card, so I did the first two of these tweaks. (as well as disabling logging)

Its amazing what people have done with Ubuntu.

My experience with it has really impressed me.

There is a [free] CNC machine control version that lets you connect your CNC mill or lathe controller to the printer port [or other IO card] and and carve out shapes under high precision computer control.

Those EEE computers are kinda neat too!
