::shudder::
With how just two glasses of Guinness and a few bottles of cider have
made my insides behave I think I'll give that one a miss.

It's a proper little computer in a very small case. You can easily
download hundreds of easily-installable applications from the web. You
can do wireless or IR networking/internet access with it, and can even
install mplayer and play videos/MP3s on it(as witnessed by Aq & Fizzy
last night).
There's even a version of Debian available for it... :D
What's not to recommend? :)
On the minus side, IME it's easy to kill(*) it. But I do do, as Aq et
al have said on numerous occasions, weird shit with mine. ;)
I'm going to give X11 with UAE a go tonight... :)

(*) Not exactly kill, not as such, but make unresponsive to the extent
that it's actually hard to even get the 'I'm charging up now' light to
appear. Once you *do* get it back, though, and it's charged, it's fine.
