Yes, it is really expensive. What I am interested in is its flexibility and ability to change the FACE Module to extend extra functions such as 4 USB, 4 more gigalan Ethernet + 4 USB, metal case for heat dissipation, etc. Even more, they are planning to develop its mSATA to install OS while the original SATA be used as storage.
Also, this powerful tiny form factor can now be confirmed to run under CentOS, Unbuntu as server, not to mention its capability for original home entertainment and casual gamers.作者: 角色 時間: 2012-9-30 08:54
It looks very good. It could provide the basics that we need for learning Linux, router (at least 2 ports) but the price is really high if we computer them with ATOM's ones.
If the front panel could be 4 LAN ports and 4 USB ports, then the hardware for learning should be perfect such that we could build very powerfully N-WAN and N-LAN router.

The form factor of Intense PC is much more compact in size that could be fitted in a small room.作者: 雯雯 時間: 2012-9-30 12:35
