[Arm-netbook] Laptop Housing Questions

Hey, I have a few questions about the laptop housing.

- How does one connect it to power? Can it be powered over USB or does
it require a specific AC adapter? I have a portable solar array with a
battery pack that can charge portable devices over USB, and I'm trying
to work out whether or not I'll be able to power the laptop from it.

- What's the average power draw of the laptop housing with an
EOMA68-A20 card? If my rough calculations are correct, I think it
should be around 6.25-8.3 W? (Looking into CPU power specs has given
me quite a bit of respect for Intel's engineers; it's amazing that
modern laptops are able to do so much with so little power.)
