[hpsdr] Install of USBIO on ATOM 330 fails

[Bob McGwier]

Without the mobile applications ready to use these processors, I am 
wondering if Intel regrets the release of this processor and mobo. It is 
going to hammer sales of larger, more expensive and capable processors 
and machines, most them almost completely wasted on the purchasers of 
these machines as most know.

I am still dumbfounded and a bit lost as to the motive.

Thanks to Rick Hambly who is really burning the midnight oil on getting 
all sorts of different set ups INCLUDING Vista 64 going (and i hope the 
latter works out) and remind everyone again, that I may have burned a 
few ounces of midnight oil, but Covington discovered this diamond in the 
rough.

I expect it to save a lot of people a lot of money, make things that 
have been using Mini-ITX mobo's much less expensive, etc.

This is an extremely fertile ground of talent here.
