This looks freaking awesome!
It latches on the back of your LCD monitor, assuming it has a “VESA wall-mount interface”. Probably some wall-mounting standard. It sports an Intel Atom (what else?) N270 1.6GHz CPU coupled with the (lacklustre) GMA 950 chipset. It has 1GB of ram soldered or a DDR2 SODIMM slot (Maximum of 1 GB only? Why?). There is also a SATA 2 connector, but no word on whether it’s for a 1.8″ or 2.5″ harddisk, and a mini-PCIe connector, for SSD madness. 3 USB ports, internal 10/100 LAN and WLAN b/g completes the connectivity options. For an added sweetness, there is also a 3-in-1 card reader.
The only bad thing I can foresee is the awful mess of wires for those geeks who are cable-management-challenged.
It will be great as a no-fuss 24/7 torrent box and/or a living room PC. I wouldn’t mind having one, depending on price.
