    I love the picture of the ceBit model. Anyone read the list of features in the picture? It says:

    it looks surprisingly similar to hp's blackbird pc


    but then again, it's just really the stand.


    it is very nice looking, would make a super htpc if it packs enough punch

    Top picture seems to be confirmed

    Asus Eee Box B202 - Foros de CHW

    I wonder if the other picture was dumped or is a different machine? The Eee Desktop will be Atom powered so I can't imagine it being very fast

    I had the same thought.
    Hey Hexus team, it might be useful to do a back to back comparison, you know, Crysis benchmarks, specviewperf, webserver duties etc etc.
    I'm commenting on an internet forum. Your facts hold no sway over me.

    Re: The first images of ASUS' EP20 Eee desktop PC?

    Has anybody seen similar chassis' to HP's Blackbird and Dell's XPS 520/630/720 for sale anywhere?

    The Asus looks great, is it M-ITX or something?

    Sure but low power CPU (so forget HDTV playback), no PCI slots (so only USB DVB-T tuners) and 2.5 inch HDD... so really the answer is "probably no"
