Shuttle's small form factor PCs aren't generally the lowest-end options around, but the company looks to be getting down to the basics with its new ES (or Embedded Slim) series nettops, which are apparently set to make their official debut at Computex next week. That of course means that complete details are still a bit light at the moment, but word is the nettops will pack your choice of VIA L or U series processors, the former of which clock in at 1.6GHz or 1.8GHz with some not so great power consumption, while the latter drops down to 1GHz and 1.3GHz with a TDP rating of just 5W or 8W, which also eliminates the need for a fan. No word on a price just yet, unfortunately, but Shuttle should be clearing that up, along with the rest of the specs, soon enough.

how much is this? I'd like one for a file server.
looks cute - you can probably put it in the bathroom and use a 42 inch screen as mirror-ofcourse you have to put a camera on it first ...
no really - im getting annoyed of all these 1.6 CPU-set everywhere.
This (or one very much similar) is already on sale over at ebuyer.

At just under £200 though, its no where near cheap enough for me to be able to get what I want from it. I hate the fact you have to pay so much to be able to build your own small, quiet computer.
Not really anything like it, seens how that is barebones and runs on ATOM. but yeah ok...
I like anything that puts another CPU company in the market i think personally we should hear more from VIA more competition is always good in my book.
