| 12:01.25 | eFfeM_work | hi w|zzy |
| 12:01.35 | w|zzy | Hows it going eFfeM_work? |
| 12:01.51 | eFfeM_work | ah doing well but my hawkboard is not too active atm |
| 12:01.58 | w|zzy | Same. |
| 12:02.19 | eFfeM_work | there does not seem too much activity looking at the channel |
| 12:02.22 | w|zzy | Its a real pity about the second batch.. Im sure its going to basically kill the project. |
| 12:02.29 | eFfeM_work | yes |
| 12:02.31 | w|zzy | Couple of easy questions but no one sticks around |
| 12:06.05 | w|zzy | Ill use it to learn on.. Its been handy to learn about linux kernel and drivers |
| 12:06.22 | w|zzy | But i dont think we will see many funky things coming out of it unfortunately. |
| 12:06.41 | eFfeM_work | nope, although it was a nifty thing given the price |
| 12:09.11 | w|zzy | It is very nifty... To have video in and sata ! |
| 12:09.19 | w|zzy | they were what won me over. |
| 12:09.30 | w|zzy | Im suprised the beagle board doesnt atleast have a sata port by now |
| 12:09.42 | eFfeM_work | yup, especially the sata thing I use every once in a while for testing |
| 12:10.04 | eFfeM_work | the omap in bb does not have sata, probably too expensive to add a separate chip |
| 12:10.35 | eFfeM_work | same with sheevaplug; used to be $ 99, aim was to come down to $ 49, but the new versions keep becoming more expensive |
| 12:11.04 | eFfeM_work | D2 plug is nice and has sata and if I recall correctly hdmi out but is $ 249 |
| 12:12.07 | w|zzy | Thats it! |
| 12:12.18 | w|zzy | It all comes down to your needs. |
| 12:12.55 | eFfeM_work | I'm mostly interested in a small, eco-friendly home server (to be left on 24/7) |
| 12:15.47 | w|zzy | I use an i3 for that. But my requirements are probably different to yours |
| 12:16.01 | eFfeM_work | i3 is nice but not really eco |
| 12:16.11 | w|zzy | http://pcengines.ch/alix.htm ? |
| 12:16.22 | w|zzy | It depends on your benchmark.. |
| 12:16.30 | eFfeM_work | I would like to have something in the 5 W range (hence myinterest in sheevaplug) |
| 12:16.40 | w|zzy | Yeah |
| 12:17.46 | w|zzy | most of those alix boards use 3ish watts |
| 12:17.51 | w|zzy | Depends on what you put on them and use on them |
| 12:18.11 | eFfeM_work | they look pretty nice |
| 12:18.29 | w|zzy | Takes CF or microdrive. |
| 12:18.45 | w|zzy | though you can put a full blown hdd on it some some mucking around but normal hdds use considerable power |
| 12:19.31 | w|zzy | My work is done for the day! I should get some sleep.. 2 3hr exams tomorrow |
| 12:19.51 | eFfeM_work | i have a few 1.8" HDs; these can easily be powered over usb so < 2.5 W |
| 12:20.57 | eFfeM_work | they do have some nice stuff and for quite fair prices |
| 12:21.04 | w|zzy | yup.. |
| 12:21.17 | w|zzy | generally ordering direct from them pays off.. particularly in aus. |
| 12:22.11 | w|zzy | i have an http://pcengines.ch/alix1d.htm i can get you real power usage states form that with CF only |
| 12:22.20 | w|zzy | but i would suggest the other boards would have smaller power usage |
| 12:23.44 | w|zzy | Let me know if you are interested.. Ill catch ya later. |
| 12:24.35 | eFfeM_work | okie, thanks for the info |
