Cybernet's all-in-one keyboard computers get an upgrade {Engadget}

Mar 24th 2008 1:30PM I've had one of these for a few years except mine has built in battery backup and is a little smaller. It a laptop that the screen cracked off. Its actually the perfect bench top computer, when the power goes out or I trip a breaker I don't loose what ever code I'm working on. Very few cables to get tangled in with the projects, serial port and parallel ports are very accessible, no mouse to plow through the piles of parts everywhere....

Laptops with broken displays also make nice low power servers. They don't take up much space, have built in backup power, they are generally pretty quite(depending on the model and manufacturer). The only thing they generally lack is storage space. A few USB 2.5" disk can solve that. Or with a custom backup power supply 3.5" externals.

Fujitsu's H.264 chip encodes/decodes in Full HD -- a world's first {Engadget}
