Interesting, I'd be curious if these would be viable for 2-3 boxing with near zero impact on your desktop real estate.

My god, the Keyboard versions suddenly remind me of my C64 and Amiga 500/1200 days! What's old is new again!

Pretty impressive looking machines. Expensive but, that's to be expected.

Yikes, you can order that thing with an old Intel Netburst chip... I didn't think they still make them. And then there's this:

"Current lead time for this product is between 8 to 12 weeks."

They must be hand-building them.

Going to have to go with no.Xzin is wise. If you ever see anything with Intel integrated graphics, just stop what you are doing, turn around and run...as fast as you can.

Interesting idea though. Apparently the new AMD integrated graphics platforms are pretty good (taking into account what they are). It would be interesting to see how one of these performs as a single alt machine. Would definitely make for a low wattage option.



Cheers

The graphics on the new AMD chipsets are equivalent to the HD2400 - it's the same graphics core (RV610). Not bad for integrated. Match this with a low 35W or 45W cpu and you may have a good low profile gaming option.

It would also be interesting to see some gaming DTX systems as well...

that is the first thing I saw as well.
