I like how the CPU is a Celeron 1.2 gb

Well, what do you expect for a $600 computer??

I have no desire to own one

We had one come into work a couple of weeks back. Was black, with blue LEDs! Was about the same size. Could have any Socket 370 processor, had firewire, ethernet, usb, tv out, kb/mouse, monitor etc.

Was only £425

I was VERY tempted with one!

I mean, how good would those be for a HTPC or in-car setup? Small, everything enclosed (the one i saw had PSU built in too! Just plugged in the power cable direct to the wall!)

But the black one i saw looked much nicer than that one

It wouldn't make a very good HTPC because of the onboard sound. It'd be cool to have these in offices and stuff.

That scares me. What's wrong with it?

Well, I certainly did not expect a Celeron 1.2 GB. I didn't know they changed the measuring system now to hard drive space.

That's the most L2 cache I've ever seen!

Probably worried about too many people buying it, looking at it in amazement, then sending it back.

Looks cool, only thing is, I don't exactly understand what purpose it has. Sure it's compact, like a laptop, but it's underpowered (unlike laptops that could be had for the same price. It still needs a monitor, which laptops have; that would also add to the price of the tiny PC, and the bulk.

But again, wow. Tiny!
