   Hey Mike!   
      
   This might be more what you were thinking about as far as Atoms are concerned   
   (SYS-1017A-MP);   
      
   ----- ':read !uname -a' starts   
   Linux lilmikey 4.15.2 #1 SMP Mon Feb 12 13:32:39 UTC 2018 x86_64 Intel(R)   
   Atom(TM) CPU N2800 @ 1.86GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux   
   ----- ':read !uname -a' ends   
      
   I use it as a headless wireless/internet router although it can function as a   
   lowpower consumption desktop if one were inclined to do so.  Personally I   
   don't have much use for desktops.  I just built and installed the 4.15.2 as   
   you can tell by it's datetime stamp.  I also upgraded glibc and gcc while I   
   was at it.   
      
   Seems to work.  This message originated from there and was transferred to the   
   node via a wired network connection using scp.  I think it deserves it's own   
   Fidonet node.  Anyhow, Linux doesn't seem to have any big issues with Intel   
   Atoms that I can tell.   
      
   Life is good,

   ... Don't cry for me I have vi.
