I am not so sure that I would go for something with an Atom processor
installed if it is going to be on 24/7 then I would rather if price has

really cheap and don't mind being on 24/7 after all Atom has half the
processing speed as a pentium m processor.<br><br>Per<br><br>E-mail: <a class="normal-link" onclick="GO.email.showAddressMenu(event, 'per@norhex.com','');" href="#">per@norhex.com</a><br><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/perqvindesland" target="_blank" class="normal-link">http://www.linkedin.com/in/perqvindesland</a><br><blockquote style="border-style: none none none solid; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color rgb(34, 67, 127); border-width: 0pt 0pt 0pt 2px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 5px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 5px;"><font size="2" face="verdana">--- Original message follows ---<br><b>Subject:&nbsp;</b>[CentOS] Intel Atom systems?<br><b>From: &nbsp;</b>Bill Campbell
