This week’s Rescued Relic is a high-end Portable Workstation made by Jiwoo for Broadax Systems Inc. Made around the year 2001, it’s a PC tower with a handle and built-in 14 inch LCD screen, making it more of a “luggable” than a portable.
ideally suited for Point Of Sale,KIOSK, Banking, Medical, Factory Floor and Telecom (phone/internet) industries.
It was a Pentium III 800mhz. machine with 128MB of RAM. I upgraded it to a 1000mhz. CPU with 768MB of RAM and added Ubuntu Linux as the operating system.
When new, this workhorse probably cost in the neighborhood of $2500.00.
