If the starting price is under £300, then I reckon they'll sell like hot cakes.
My mother in law needs to get rid of her P4 1.6Ghz XP box, and this could fit the bill nicely :)
Yep, I agree, it's all about pricing and availability (though, what isn't?)
Bundle it with W7 and a remote and they could help make mediaPCs become more mainstream.
Can I be the first to say a "Dell Mac Mini clone" ? ;)
It's a box with components in it. Were you expecting a decahedron? :PQuote:

Personally I think this will have a hard time gaining traction against the Revo.
I recently bought a £149.99 Revo, i mean we are talking beer money at this level, the machine is damn fine. Slapped a spare Win7 home license on it. with its 1 gig of RAM it does really rather well. Going to try it as a media PC for a 720p TV, and hopefully it will do well enough for 1080p.
This is a fair bit larger and at ~£300 I'm not sure will offer enough over the likes of the acer/asus
No, Mac Minis weren't the first, but are the top selling pc of their kind,
so any new one will be naturally compared to it.
Apple often takes a failed concept, and makes a success of it a few years later (and calls it innovation :rolleyes: )
Revos are good for what they are (low powered and small),
but for the same price you could get this much more capable Acer desktop:
Acer Extensa AMD 1640B Athlon, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, DVDRW £149 @ ebuyer
