Plugging In $40 Computers
What would you do with a $40 Linux computer the size of a three-prong plug adapter?

"Marvell Technology Group is counting on an army of computer engineers and hackers to answer that question. It has created a plug computer. It's a tiny plastic box that you plug into an electric outlet. There's no display. But there is an Ethernet jack to connect to a home network and a U.S.B. socket for attaching a hard drive, camera or other device. Inside is a 1.2 gigahertz Marvell chip, called an application processor, running a version of the Linux operating system."
