Avalue Technlogy has announced a pair of fanless touchpanel computers that run Linux. The 10.4-inch LPC-1001 and 12.1-inch LPC-1201 have Via Eden processors, CompactFlash storage, dual gigabit Ethernet ports, VGA outputs, and optional 2.5-inch hard disk drives, says Avalue.
Avalue's LPC-1001 and LPC-1201 are identical except for the size of their resistive touchscreen displays, 10.4 and 12.1 inches, respectively. Either way, they have 800 x 600 pixel resolution, which makes them arguably less than ideal for productivity applications, but well-suited to industrial or home automation applications. Both devices do have VGA ports for external monitors, which, according to Avalue, can pack up to 2048 x 1536 pixels.
