ASUS Expands SplashTop Mobo Selection

Posted by Michael Larabel on January 03, 2008

DeviceVM and ASUS are today announcing that they have expanded their selection of motherboards that ship with SplashTop (a.k.a. "Express Gate") technology. We've been enthralled by SplashTop, an embedded instant-on Linux desktop environment, since we had first looked at this technology on the ASUS P5E3 Deluxe motherboard. DeviceVM's SplashTop is so interesting that it had even earned the title of being one of the greatest Linux innovations of 2007.

The new motherboards that will ship with SplashTop include the ASUS M3N-HT Deluxe/Mempipe, M3N-HT Deluxe/HDMI, and M3N-H/HDMI. SplashTop will also be included on some notebook computers in the near future. The press release can be read from the PRNewsWire, and at Phoronix we'll have more details during CES 2008 next week.
