User-inserted image

Asendtech has several of these tiny 6 in x 6 in mini pc / CPU combo , just 29.99 , very very good option for a autonomous robot (a person doesn't need to be at a computer or laptop wirelessly controlling it ). These draw about 12 watts. I just bought one , get them while they are hot! - Josh

OK, you tech savy guys. I've never ventured into embedded computing. I'd like a really good idea of what I'd be getting myself into. I see this is a motherboard. I read the description on the specs, but left me with a s_ _ tload of questions. The size seemes perfect for placing in a robot. Does it come with a power supply, or a connection for an AC wire/plug? Is there any software on it at all? What OS does it need? What would I have to add too this to make it a viable control system? I presume that the EZ-B would need to be interfaced to it. I see it has USB ports. Can the EZ-B be connected via one of the USB ports? Any and all info would be appreciated. Thanks guys, Lloyd

you need a hard drive ,best is SSD wont get damage and has low power,but any laptop drive it good 12 volts is all you need on this one,will need memory sticks up to 4 gig,operating system like windows xp pro ,ebay has a lot of them,and cd rom to install it and using the usb port to connect to EZB I DO ALOT OF COMPUTER REPAIRS so if you need more info i can help its pretty easy to set it up
