But of course, 800x600 with a touchpad mouse.  It's what I'm posting from.
I got it as a second (they've got lots, ex-display I think) from a
crowd called "Mikrolive" on 01793 783 222.

The only thing that doesn't work properly is when I resume, the 3c589c
isn't re-initialised properly.  I have to plug it out and in again.
I really ought to sort that out.
