That’s a load of S%4T. I am not opposed to these manufactures bringing these types of products to market for the low end market but lets see some HTPC love, Asus at least put out a ATI graphics based net top but that still leaves Linux lovers SOL, no hardware video decoding under Linux for ATI cards and all the apps are already ported to nVidia’s VDPAU so at this point nVidia graphics are the only solution. Either way, I personally would have been more impressed if they put out an ION based net top based on the same form factor. It’s definitely a nice design; I don’t think I have ever seen a net top with an optical drive. Definitely a good looking product, they just need to put out an ION version.<br><br>Peace,<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[junk]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2009 7:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ASRock debuts Atom 330-powered NetTop S330: eyes-on]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/asrock-debuts-atom-330-powered-nettop-s330-eyes-on/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/asrock-debuts-atom-330-powered-nettop-s330-eyes-on/</guid><description><![CDATA[loving the gold and black... kind of reminds me of a NES with a zelda theme...  400$ is about right for this product, if a net book without an optical drive and a worse chipset can go for 350 - 450 (cough cough hp) why cant an actual net top that is more along the lines of desktop replacement, when i first say it i thought hell yes im buying one putting it on a shelf below my 50 inch lg..... its perfect yes its a bit of a mac mini rip, but honestly who cares the saying comes to mind (its like the pot calling the kettle black) meaning who cares you both are the same perform the same and do the same things stop ragging on each other just because ones an apple product and runs mac and ones a asrock product and runs windows.... THEY ARE ALL PC'S MADE FROM THE SAME PARTS DIFFERENT STICKERS GLOWING EMBLEMS AND OPERATING SYSTEMS DONT MAKE A DIFFERENCE BECAUSE THEY ALL HAVE USED AND STILL HAVE USED THE SAME COMPONENTS. until microsoft or apple starts macing processors, graphics cards, sound cards, hdd drives, power supplies, etc... thats when you people can start comparing apples to oranges ( no pun intended) but right now people are just comparing oranges and oranges<br><br><br>the ion would be a great plus but still i think its a good product]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bereda]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 7th 2009 2:18AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
