WinSystems announced an EPIC-format, extended-temperature single board computer (SBC) that runs Linux. Aimed at industrial applications, the EPX-855-G is equipped with an Intel Celeron-M clocked at 1GHz (fanless) or 1.8GHz Pentium (fan), and can operate at temperatures ranging from -40 to 158 degrees F.

Ampro announced a device combining the ETX COM (computer on module) form-factor with an AMD Geode LX800 processor.

Targeting "mission-critical military, avionics, and industrial applications," the "ETX 620" runs Linux, supports 1GB of RAM, and has PCI and ISA interfaces, says Ampro.

Taiwanese industrial computing specialist Artila Electronics is shipping a single-board computer (SBC) for industrial applications.

The M-508 Linux Computer and its temperature-resistant M-508T twin are based on ARM9 Atmel processors clocked to 180MHz, and include a preloaded version of Artila's Linux 2.6.14 based distribution.

An open developer community has desiged a tiny ARM9-based board for industrial applications, such as serial device servers.

Manufactured by SystemBase of Korea, and designed by the "Embedded Module Developer Community" (EMDC), the "Eddy 2x" board comes with "Lemonix" real-time Linux and Eclipse-based "LemonIDE" tools.

Intel has launched a system-on-chip (SoC) processor that integrates typical northbridge and southbridge functions with a Pentium M core clocked up to 1.2GHz.

Targeting storage, networking, automotive, and industrial applications, the single-chip Intel EP80579 (formerly "Tolapai") optionally boasts an ultra-highspeed FPGA co-processor interface dubbed "QuickAssist."
