It sprang to life

I was at the end of my tether. Nothing had gone smoothly, every seemingly simple operation had ended up being ten times more complicated and had me visiting the textbooks (Yeah, Ok, Wikipedia) over and over. And then, as midnight struck, I applied the voltage again and, after a disappointing flicker, the monster lumbered to life, its screen filling with the sweet monochrome text of success. MUuuuuuhahahaha!!!

720degrees.org. Debian for obsolete palmtops, since 2006.

It runs! I have a full base install of Debian on my palmtop. most excellent.

Now, whats this 'apt' thing? what're packages, again? And where's the jornada-specific ones, or will it run anything designed for Debian?

Albeit a very small one.

But of course it's not the size that matters, its how you use it.
