I qualify for this as I have an ASUS Mobo and It bypasses Windows so you can browse quick (No Idea how long it works for? Does it shut down when Windows is ready to Launch the Primary Browser connection (and IE?) Roll Eyes
[url=www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=expressgate&aq=0&oq=expressg[/url] Here are all the details bar the installation and running instructions which are here and It will fit on a USB memory stick Cool(Plenty of Video links on this product) Smile
This is a description of the Preinstalled version which come with all of the Latest ASUS Mobos (as standard) Cool
quote:
To begin if you are as yet unaware of Asus' Express Gate it is a new application that loads immediately on startup of a system based off of Splashtop. To quote from Splashtop's website it is a, "proprietary pre-boot environment, developed by DeviceVM, which allows you to rapidly access certain applications without the need to boot your main operating system. Splashtop boots out of the BIOS on your PC motherboard, and launches a lightweight Linux stack capable of running certain applications like the Splashtop web browser, and the Skype VOIP program. The Splashtop environment allow you to open a web browser, check email, watch videos, instant message, and place VOIP calls within seconds instead of minutes." Pretty cool, eh? ExpressGate is contained within onboard NAND flash memory chip pictured here in between the PCI slot and the second PCI-Express 16x slot.

NOTE The original Name was Splashtop (Name of the Developers)

See also www.splashtop.com/faq.php for more info and Downloads I Imagine there are other Motherboards this can be used on
Trivia It is Linux powered and Firefox 2
I suspect it will work on AMD Processors computers better But its a try out..it works? then shout out Smile
