Sneak Peek at the Zonbu PC
*Source: ExtremeTech (http://www.extremetech.com/article2/...36605,00.asp)*
__________ A $99 PC with up to 100GB of storage, a small footprint, and the ability to play your multimedia files? That's pretty hard to believe, but the Zonbu PC pulls it off. This system, meant to be purchased as a second PC for the home, comes with a 1.2GHz Via C7 ULV processor, integrated graphics, 512MB of DDR2 memory, and a customized Linux OS based on Gentoo. The OS is loaded onto a 4GB CompactFlash card. Interestingly enough, the system has no hard drive. Rather, the company offers online storage: You can either rent out 25GB of space for $12.95 a month or 100GB for $19.95 a month on the Amazon S3 online service. You can also access the files you save online from another PC and upload files from other systems using a Windows importer provided by Zonbu. More... |
