        Aewin is shipping a "feature rich" PC/104-Plus SBC (single-board computer) based on an AMD Geode LX800 processor. The PM-6100 fully supports Windows XP and Windows XP Embedded, runs fanless at 500 MHz, and targets space-constrained, high-performance, low-power industrial and embedded applications, according to the company.

        The module, one of the first PC/104 modules to sport a Geode LX800, extends beyond the normal PC/104 form-factor on its sides, enabling it to accommodate the many input/output connections along with the processor's broad heat sink and required silicon components.
