Hey Mike!

This might be more what you were thinking about as far as Atoms are concerned
(SYS-1017A-MP);

----- '<Esc>:read !uname -a' starts
Linux lilmikey 4.15.2 #1 SMP Mon Feb 12 13:32:39 UTC 2018 x86_64 Intel(R)
Atom(TM) CPU N2800 @ 1.86GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
----- '<Esc>:read !uname -a' ends

I use it as a headless wireless/internet router although it can function as a
lowpower consumption desktop if one were inclined to do so.  Personally I don't
 have much use for desktops.  I just built and installed the 4.15.2 as you can
tell by it's datetime stamp.  I also upgraded glibc and gcc while I was at it.

Seems to work.  This message originated from there and was transferred to the
node via a wired network connection using scp.  I think it deserves it's own
Fidonet node.  Anyhow, Linux doesn't seem to have any big issues with Intel
Atoms that I can tell.

Life is good,
Maurice

... Don't cry for me I have vi.
