In this thread, please share your experiences with Splashtop
apparently the splashtop brand has been zombified into some kind of remote access thing. i have terrible news for you about the past
splashtop was originally a linux distribution from the era of first-gen eMMC netbooks. circa 2009, this was something that you could boot into by pressing F10 during startup on your eeepc, because it was slightly faster than booting windows XP. it was an extremely stripped down OS with like, a web browser and a copy of skype
worse, however, is that it came on motherboards. motherboards. not PCs. the asus P5E3 has fucking linux in ROM. i had one of these and i never, not once, used it.
i saw a VAIO that had one of these partitions once. i think to access it you had to hit a button marked 'WEB' next to the power button while the laptop was off. crazy times
