    Could be nice for an HTPC. under £35 for the M/B about £40 for the CPU, some cheap ram, an SSD, case (total £200). Not bad if it performs.

    And a quick look on Amazon reveals that the 5350 is a 2gig/25 watt/4 core chip for under £40

    I might be able to use one of these in a NAS/Server box which my current Atom based box suffers sometimes due to lack of performance.
    Or even a big money box masquerading as a MAME machine

    That's a socketed mITX board for £27?

    Yup - just over £26. 2 SATA ports as well. The ASRock one would make a nice NAS/Server box with 4 x SATA ports too, though you'd have to use software RAID

    tbh, we won't get any realistic power draw figures until someone does a review with a < 100W pico - at wall draws are < 40W, which on the PSUs most people are using are < 10% load so likely to be very inefficient....

    Tell you what is really great about that Asus board, They have been a bit smart and stuck a serial port on it, There are so many hobbyists out there that still use old slow computers just because they want a printer or serial port.

    The S2P variant appears to be specifically aimed at industrial use and/or the maker community - parallel, serial, and PCIc? very retro

    Speaking of, it looks like Kabini @ 2.05GHz has about the same performance as Athlon X2 at 2.1Ghz. Makes my X2 4050e pretty much redundant

    Wonder how careful they will be with idle draw though. If these are aimed at really low end case/psu setups as part of keeping the cost down, then cheap is going to win over efficient so they might just not bother.
