nec mobilepro 900

Post by Zzebotes13 »

I was thinking about getting one of these to tkaje notes with for school. The question is, is there a way to hack them and install Windows xp (or any other desktop based os). They have a 400mhz propcessor and i could buy an external harddrive and memory for? Anyone know if anything like this has been done. Please share. 8)

It's a Windows CE device (I think it uses an ARM proc.), so I seriously doubt you could.

get a lifebook B series, the lower powered ones run around 300-500$ its got a 10" touchscreen and its really pretty small. not as small as the mobilepro but about twice the processor speed or better and more ram etc and can run xp if you really want it to i guess
