If you can get a standard game console for around $200, why is this double the price for almost nothing? You can just get a ps3 and install Linux and it will work fine, and this peice of crap dosen’t even have a hard drive.
Good review, but this company must be sniffing some kind of (are they out of there minds sauce)(hehe).This thing is way to expensive. You can purchase a full laptop or a netbook or a pretty fast desktop for that amount of money. This kinda reminds me of the suckers buying the over priced kindle.I laughed at the price of the kindle & as I opened my ext drive connected to my laptop with a catalog of ebooks enormous with no locks & drm crap like the ones on the kindle ebooks.Companies are greedy.
hard disk drives are going to be a thing of the past soon because they cannot offer a slim enough profile and low power consumption like a solid state drive can
not to mention solid state drive computers dont need cooling fans either because they have no moving parts to generate heat.
400$ is a bit much for this though considering all it is is a small mother board lol
It would be cool to use that as a apache server to access simple txt files for linux. Imagine teamspeak hosting on it too, and I can leave it on for days without having to worry about the electric bill!
I would say the same, 120-150 dollars..
Remember, I can get a energy efficient mini-laptop for 300 dollars, with a screen, touch pad, 512MB ram, 8 GB of internal flash. I still need a screen with this and a keyboard, in the end the mini-laptop is better.

@Mr95bartmanisback
A netbook is only $350 and you can do all this and play some small performance games.
was thinking you actually only get 1 usb for you need the other 2 for usb keyboards and mouse and the other is for the flash drive to boot it up
did you screw the doll?

Good review Sean. Bad device! Ew. As much as I like Xubuntu,this is useless fotr that money.
Actually pay more when adding extras.

the no power switch issue doesn’t effect me in the UK because we have switches on our wall outlets
I don’t why I said it looked like KDE… Sorry ’bout that
.
Definitely looks like XFCE.
EMZ=]
protip: it uses xfce, looks like its based off xubuntu
$400 for that? Way too steep without a hdd or a monitor. Sorry, but not cool. Good review, though.
omg, it’s twice as big as a Fit-PC, and it doesn’t even have a HDD/SSD??
(The Fit-PC is half the size, and it includes a sata hdd.)

can it be used to boot up ubuntu?
250 euros for this heap of crap?

Same, though, I think it uses KDE… not sure though, maybe XFCE. Don’t think it’s GNOME.
EMZ=P
Looks like xubuntu? No, I think it IS xubuntu. It has the xubuntu logo…
no computers are MADE in the usa…many are assembled there but if you open up any American assembled pc it will contain chinease made parts,

life isnt fair barbie
rofl
can you use any linux distro designed for pen drives? like wolvix, gentoo or maybe gobuntu?
Boy, must that be a disappointment to find out
or build you own, and put a full strength distro on it
well this is really… innovating but… bit expensive o.o
