LLUON's A1: bad for steak, good for email


Finally someone has created the perfect lovechild of a laptop and desktop PC. Enter the LLUON A1, a buttery combo that looks as if someone suction-cupped a LCD display to the top of an Eee PC. The system is designed for recreational activities (though likely not hardcore gaming), featuring an Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, an 18.4-inch (1680 x 954) display, a handful of ports, and the ubiquitous DVD multi-drive. Right now this is a Korean-only product, and frankly we don't have a lot of hope that it's headed anywhere close to our shores in the future, but if you know a good importer -- or you've got Asian vacation plans -- you can probably snap this up pretty soon.

TG's LLUON Crystal reminds us that mini PCs can be sexy, too


Sure, manufacturers are stuffing all sorts of great components into inconceivably small cases these days, but all that cramming has still left plenty of room for ugly of late. TG has been honing its skinny desktop form factor for a few years now, and seems to have it down to a science with the latest TG LLUON Crystal. Specs are only so-so, running up to a Core 2 Duo T7200 processor at 2GHz, 2GB of RAM, a 500GB HDD, DVD burner, GeForce 8400 GS graphics and a bit of 802.11g, and the 1,399,000 won pricetag (about $1,490 US) is hardly a steal for this amount of power, but we're just glad that ugly spell is over -- and unsurprised it took a South Korean company to do the trick.
