Hardware for Webware: A motherboard with embedded Firefox

By Rafe Needleman ? October 10, 2007, 6:08 PM PDT



"I just got a chance to try out a Webware PC: a computer built around the new P5E3 Deluxe/WiFi-AP motherboard from Asus. What makes this motherboard be hardware for Webware is that it has a Firefox Web browser (running on an embedded Linux operating system) burned into ROM. It also has Skype. You turn it on, and in fifteen seconds (I timed it), you can be in Firefox and surfing the Web."

    This will flop. It's just another example of a taiwanese commodity parts vendor building a product without doing any market research. The fact is, 99 times out of 100 when I want to hit the web, it takes my computer 3 seconds to wake up from sleep.
