    Cant find this Mini PC

     
    I think it was a few months ago, i saw on teh Techimo main page with an atrical on what seems to be a Mini PC with a orange front trim and has a knob, sorta looks like a small reviever with a display in front, i was wondering what that was. Anyone know?

    thanks.

    It wasnt home made, it was REALLY marketed. it was quite nice too, if anyone can give me a name or link it'd be much appreciated.

    Nope, thats not it either. I finally found it, its still in advertising phoase i believe because its not being sold anywhere and was previewed at E3.

    It's by MSI and i think its called "MEGA" MEGA 651

    "[M]SI [E]ntertainment [G]aming [A]ppliance"

    Heh, no longer called a PC but an appliance, sounds like something for the kitchen.

    that is pretty cool . it is small . i wonder how well it will do games with the onboard video . but for a little internet box that would work great .

    I like how you can play music and stuff without turning on the PC.

    The only thing that bothers me about SFF is that if you want to upgrade, you can't! You have to wait for the SFF mobo to come out! Plus for Video Card you have to be careful about the lenght and size....and heat and quiteness can be a problem on those cases.

    heat would be my biggest concern. If there is a P4 version, I would definitely opt for that one.
