[geeks] 64 Meg CF Card

Hello all,

Today the basement of wonder turned up an MSN2 Internet TV box, a horribly
under-powered PC designed for dial up or Ethernet connection to the
internet and display on a standard TV.

It has no value as built, and after I contemplated it for a few moments
I decided I had no better use for it so I opened it up to extract whatever
removable parts there were - and there was only one - a 64 Meg SanDisk CF
card.

Maybe sanity has left me, but what, if anything, could I do with such a
part? Are there any interesting appliance software builds than can install
on such a small device?

I suspect the MSN2 box ran something like QNX or similar OS off it, but I
can't think of an application that is that small - any thoughts?

Lionel
