[aprssig] Small linux laptop

[Andrew Rich]

What I can not work out is how to enter some sort of command prompt.

I am also curious as to how I would wipe it and hit it with suse linux.

I had a play today with one in a shop - the 800x600 might be limiting.

Yea, one of my friends in this area already got Xastir running on
his.  There's an 8GB version as well.
