they have a Cyrix MediaGX processor (CS5530 is apparently the support
chip), 48 megs of disk on chip, DSTN 800x600 LCD, and a 44pin IDE header
(not just the pads, but a header), and sell on ebay and ubid for < US$100.

The sound looks like a soundblaster 16 according to all of the linux
sites, and audio out works under linux, but no recording.

the ALSA people have a PDF data sheet, but it's not real helpful:

I'll try to send the dmesg output when i get a chance.  it reports as a
soundblaster 16, and recording works OK, so i was thinking it was
something in the sbc driver's assumptions.
