Jbit,

Our 712/60 works marvels! It's a great little box and I used to do
daily glibc / gcc / linux compiles on the box (mind you it would take
about 8 hrs to compile glibc).

The fb code works great on the 712/60... the first time I saw the
penguin in the conrner of the bootup screen made me smile :)

ditto for lan (AUI/RJ45) ... works great.

Sound? Never tried. Haven enough MP3 playing boxes in the office ^__^;;
