This entire article is written as a proposal to a coprporation for a new, very unique computing system. Please offer criticism and suggestions to improve the system, and tell me whether you think it could work. What exactly is the "Edge Computing System" And more importantly, why would I want to go to the trouble of developing it? The Edge Computing System is just that, an entire system, not just a new type of computer or new software suite. The Edge is the means by which you can have your personal computer with you at all times.

Excuse for my english, I'm italian.
Well, why not use two 1Gb CompactFlash card? One instead of the mini-DVD and another for documents and configuration?
I think your Idea will work with a VIA EPIA-M10000 a C3 1Ghz Processor, 2 514mb DDR modules, 2 1Gb CompactFlash card on parallel ATA (why not 3 or 4? You have another IDE channel...), hard disk on firewire and a Source-Based distribution (Gentoo or Sourcemage...)
A Revolution? I think not, an experiment much expensive (compactflash are too expensive!).
Bye.
