Green computing is a big deal in many companies and communities. The more power we can save in computing the less pollution is produced and the less power we consume. Power savings is an especially big deal in the business world. Tecsol has announced a new green touchscreen computer aimed at building automation called the Medallion TPC-43C.

The machine has a 4.3-inch touchscreen with 65K colors and a resolution of 480 x 272. The device runs an ARM9 processor with 32kB of cache, 64MB of SDRAM, and 128MB of NAND flash. The little touchscreen device draws all the power it needs from an Ethernet cable, which also gives it connectivity.

The machine has a built-in memory card reader and can be upgraded with Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity. The device runs Linux 2.6.3x and has drivers loaded. The machine sells in quantities of ten for $425.
