I don't know what anyone would need with a serious graphics card, after all, you're not doing 3D modeling or playing hard-core 3D games on it. Even as a desktop replacement, this wouldn't be bad for most people.

For media playback, this will be more than fine. Your DVD player doesn't have a GeForce card in it afterall.]]>Jan 3rd 2007 6:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Jan 3rd 2007 3:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/
However, I'd expect the US price *not* to just be a simple conversion from Pounds Sterling. The X200 appears on Shuttle's US splash page, but is currently nowhere to be found on the rest of their site.

Stay tuned.]]>Jan 3rd 2007 1:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Jan 3rd 2007 1:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/
That's what I thought about the last gen. This has RCA video out if I recall. Paint this thing like a NES, use a retropad USB controller and you have emulation nirvana.]]>Jan 3rd 2007 3:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Jan 4th 2007 12:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Jan 3rd 2007 4:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Jan 3rd 2007 2:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Its too deep! You are paying all that money for a small/slim PC but where can you actually put it? You have exactly the same restrictions as a regular Shuttle case or even a mini-tower. Except now you can rest some papers / books ontop of it.

That and the integrated graphics makes this an expensive alternative to the Mac Mini/AOpen mini.

Integrated TV tuner is nice.]]>Jan 3rd 2007 8:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Jan 3rd 2007 5:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/03/shuttle-launches-xpc-x200-mini-pc-goes-core-2-duo/Its too deep!

WTF? How else should it be shaped? It'll fit on a shelf/rack with the DVD player, AV tuners, amp etc. It's the perfect form factor, it's as deep as most standard components.

Hey I have a novel idea for all of you, don't buy it if it's not what you're looking for. If you want a game machine, go buy one. This isn't a game machine, nor is it a laptop.

Geeks are so high maintenance.
