My thanks to those who take the time to email me - either with questions or with suggestions/news about what you've been doing. I try and respond fairly promptly to all emails - so if you've been ignored for a few days do try again as there is always a chance that your email has been misfiled by my ISP's spam filter. Your emails often do lead to updates of this website where I may add additional information and/or reword sections to save others having to ask the same thing. If it is something new you've discovered/done then it may well get added with an appropriate acknowledgement.

Having discovered an interesting site on somebody's use of the t5720 I've decided to add a "links" tab to the hardware pages. If you know of good descriptions of the use to which particular thin clients have been put please email me the details so that I can add them to the site.

3/11  Added a description of how to get the Tiny Core based webserver to support https.
31/10  Modified the lspci listing in the hardware description tab to be hidden unless clicked on. To make life easy I wrote a script to do the necessary editing of the html on some 70 pages but I have not (yet) visited every page to check the result. Please let me know if you encounter any oddities. I may be doing something similar to the CPU section over time but that is not quite so easy to automate.
