All,
I am looking for recommendations on small, preferably inexpensive, systems that are capable of running on 12v to take advantage of the redundant power systems at our sites.
I would like it to support at least two nodes running simpleusb as I don't need the DSP processing capabilities. The idea is that these systems would be connected to a port on an existing controller.
I expect that HP thin clients are going to be my best bet, but there seem to be many different models so I don't know where to begin.
Suggestions or thoughts?
<-- I've had reasonable success with the HP T5710's; I use the models with 1.2GHz proc' and 256MB of RAM. If you can get the models with 4GB of DOM that would be best. I have modified several to use a 4GB micro-drive, which work fine ...... UNTIL, the micro-drives crap out! So, I'd think twice before putting them up at a remote site that you cannot easily access. My 2 cents. Ramesh.
