fitlet-A10 performance

Your performance comparison chart http://www.fit-pc.com/web/wp-content/uploads/Benchmark-fitlet-and-other-CompuLab-PCs.jpg doesn't list the A10 models. It would be nice, if they were added. Also, the steep price step from fitlet-B to fitlet-i is too bad. Does AMD really charge that much more for the...

Mounting bracket and stacking

I don't know, if it is mechanically feasable, but it would be nice, if the case had screwholes at the edges to use screws similar to the ones in this picture, such that fitlets could be stacked with some space between the cases: http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/parallella-cluste...

Re: Software questions

1) I suppose it includes Windows 7/8 too, does it? I once tried to install an older Windows version to a removable drive, but if I remember correctly, the drive either wouldn't show up in the list of installation targets or wouldn't be found after the reboot at the end of the installation. I don't ...

Re: Software questions

(3) Are there open source drivers for all hardware components that are in fitlet, like the Bluetooth chips in some models?

Re: Hardware questions

Thanks for the clarification. I would like to add though to the fourth point you make about your decision against DP, that since DP 1.2, there is Multi Stream Transport (MST) support that allows to connect multiple monitors via one DP. The way it works is, that you connect one monitor with the compu...

fitlet maximum resolution

Some more questions for this thread: (5) The comparison table says that all fitlets only support resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 pixels at 60 Hz, although HDMI 1.4a's bandwidth should allow for higher resolutions (from what I've read, HDMI's bandwidth from version 1.3 on is 8.16 Gbit/s, therefore good...

Thermal performance and 3G support

Two quick hardware questions:

(1) Is ECC memory supported?

(2) Will the APU throttle after running some time under maximum workload? If this depends on environment temperature (i. e., the room temperature outside fitlet's case), at what room temperature would fitlet's APU never throttle?

Re: coreboot on fitlet

That sounds plausible. However, I'd like to point you to this announcement post, in which some developers ask for general feedback from potentially interested commercial parties: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot-announce/2014-December/000020.html Possibly, filling out their survey might he...

coreboot on fitlet

In the comparison table on http://www.fit-pc.com/web/products/specifications/ , the "Bootloader" field for the fitlets only lists "TBA". Why is this? I would expect that anything other than Coreboot for a bootloader cannot possibly make any sense, since all commercial BIOSes are known to be slow und...
