Tadpole's Nehemiah Notebook
July 20, 2004

Legendary SPARCBook manufacturers Tadpole Computer have released details of the Talin 12, an ultra portable notebook available in both 1Ghz Nehemiah C3 and 1.2Ghz Pentium M variants. The Talin 12 is fully supported dual-boot - with Windows XP Home on one partition and SuSE Linux running Sun's Java Desktop System on the other. Tipping the scales at just 3lbs and measuring 10.6" x 8.7"x 1.0", the Talin 12 includes a 12.1" TFT display and the usual plethora of interfaces. We've seen a trickle of C3 and Antaur-based notebooks over the past year or two, but with both Intel and AMD producing low-power chips suitable for notebooks, VIA will have a struggle gaining market share.
