Thanks for wasting 4 minutes of my life! For some reason, I picked up a Wyse Winterminal S50 from Weird Stuff last week... a thin linux client box from 2006 that has some sort of underpowered x86 and very little memory.
So I was playing with it and it has this weird linux on it that lets you set it up to very slowly browse the web and such, but it wasn't very interesting, all told.
When I saw this project come up, I grabbed the .img, wrote it to a spare usb stick and damn if the thing didn't just boot up to floppy bird. Nice work! Now I wonder what other dumb PCs I have sitting around that can boot it...
