It comes with no hard drive, so you have to mount NFS drive on it. It has 13 mb of ram. 200 mhz RISC Hitachi SuperH processor. Nice and spreedy. Very under-rated. Needs more ram and it possibly could beat the hell outta PlayStation. I didn't check yet, but I am wondering if that linux distribution comes with a compiler for dreamcast. Hahah. Need to compile samba and other stuff I don't really need. Mouhahah.

Welcome to the world of the OS that doesn't crash! Better yet, it's not made by Satan™. Maybe you can rip the rom on your car's ECU and make a tunable linux based ECU that runs on debian :eek: 
i'm used to ole fashioned slackware myself 
I have worked with the SuperH at my job before... its a great processor... We have a Operating System port for it
a real time OS anyway, more like a kernel

You can do a number of things beside Linux. You can put emulators for Playstation, Super Nintendo, and etc etc. Get software to play VCDs, MPEG1, MP2, MP3 and many others. It's fun.
