I reckon you could sell this for a bit more to a "lady" - but you'd have to have a suitable (i.e. white) monitor, KB & Mouse. <ducks and runs for cover>
Re: PriceCheck - Aopen XC Cube Pentium M System...
Yep - that's almost exactly what I was thinking - around 100 - 110 with keyboard and mouse (both black)... thanks.
It's almost silent - and would be practically silent if I didn't have the Radeon in it :)

Does this have wifi? Another pci slot? How good is the onboard soundcard for output to an amp - ie any crackling. Whats the highest cpu the board can take?

Whats the highest cpu the board can take? Socket 479 Pentium M 533mhz FSB...
the fastest Pentium M available is 2.26ghz according to Wikipedia

Re: PriceCheck - Aopen XC Cube Pentium M System...
Hmmm i might be interested. If you could test the audio as i would add a wifi card, but would also need goodish onboard sound then. How well does the pentium m perform, ie would it compete with a 3.2 s478 800fsb cpu?
Re: PriceCheck - Aopen XC Cube Pentium M System...
The system has built in 5.1 sound
I would say the Pentium M 1.8ghz chip compares / equals a P4 @ 2.8ghz roughly. (The Pentium M was the fore-runner to the Intel Core Solo / Duo... etc)
You could always add a usb wifi card if you did want to upgrade the sound.
It's not ready for sale yet (hence the price check :) ) - but when it is I'll put it in FS forum / and let you know.
Re: PriceCheck - Aopen XC Cube Pentium M System...
I think you get closer to £150 on ebay or somewhere else.... selling here will be at a low price, because people know too much about computers!
Re: PriceCheck - Aopen XC Cube Pentium M System...
Does it take the new Core Duo (not C2D) mobile chips?
May mean you can bump the price up...
