Microsoft co-founder to demo always-on mini PC
Vulcan, the company set up by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, will show off its FlipStart always-on mobile "mini PC" this week.
FlipStart is a compact 14.8 x 10.1 x 2.6cm (5.8 x 4 x 1in) notebook that sports an unnamed 1GHz processor and runs Windows XP. Vulcan's idea is to offer a machine that has the compatibility, power and application base of the mainstream Microsoft OS with a form factor that's little bigger than a PDA yet features a full QWERTY keyboard. Like a PDA, the device is designed to operate continuously, going to sleep when the lid is closed rather than shutting down completely. Read more: The Register. |

Sounds like something half decent!
 The keyboard is what just sold me, no more of those silly pens or modified keyboards

How is this possible??Windows has to be restarted eventually... Otherwise the system would just keep getting slower and slower!
