A Pleasant Surprise

An old and abandoned page I created long time ago showed up in the 3rd place in a google search on "ipaq ia-1 hack" and the 6th place on "ipaq ia-1" I did today. The page describes how to run a small Linux package on IA-1.

The Compaq Ipaq IA-1 is an Internet Appliance released in late 2000. It failed in the market, like all other IAs at that time.
