Visara Thin clients with DOC's

Anyone have experience with Visara e300 or e360 or with the Teco (oem of it) tr2220 (e300) or tr3331 (e360).

I bought a few thin clients (visara brand) and some are geode gx1's (e360) and some are SIS550 (e300) (all x86 compat).

They all have Ce.net 4.2 on them.

They have 32 meg m-systems DOC's (5v in the e360 and 3v in the e300). Insyde bios - although the e360 have AMD xpressrom bios despite saying they have insyde bios..

The e300 (or tr2220) has a sis550 200 mhz with 3volt 32 meg DOC millenium plus. It is using this chip as bios as well. (I want to get that off and use a regular bios chip since I have the socket, but thats another project.)

The e360 (or tr3331) has a geode gx1 with cs5530a 300 mhz. 5 volt 32 meg DOC millenium plus. But this one does not use it as bios. It has a pretty standard Xpressrom bios.

Both have IDE ports that work.

Ideally I'd like to put win98 or me on these...

I'd like to edit the registry on these so I can make it a little more useful for my purposes. Internet surfing machines, for a computer illiterate. It should work ok as is, But I still want to be able to remove some stuff I don't need, and put some on I do.

I can get explorer.exe open but I have to use internet explorer and enter a folder on the system then it opens it. I can edit the registry but some stuff is saved and some stuff isn't.

Can someone help? Here are the ghost files from both units. (booted to dos and used ghost to backup the doc)
