    Im thankful to have found a great CF-M34 forum
    and some dedicated owners.
    Short story going to pimp out a 34 thats kind of
    special to me.
    This 34 has the rubber backlit keyboard and wifi antenna on the upper left display lid corner. all the body and case are 99% and I have a brand new touchscreen for it the old one is 99.9%
    perfect. Im going to add an ide ssd.. 1g ram
    linus os.. and have the bottom and top. case cerecoated.. nato forest digi camo lid and desert tan bottom and upper body. will add Bluetooth and 4g lte / gps. not sure if theirs room for the beer cooler but will give it best effort. Also have a usb 3 pcmcia card

    the usb its a startec
    the beer cooler is a coleman

    the linux kernel has usb 3 driver solidly built in. the startec comes w windows drivers

    linux runs windows reference drivers
    for all system devices

    Just a tip for linux os

    Awesome rated
    linux mint LMDE 2
    LINUX LITE
    Both are outstanding

    Better off just running Debian and not having all the Linux mint bloat and handholding.
