Is the mini PC market dead -- or more alive than ever?
That's the question George Ou's article is really answering. He hits VIA for charging a premium for its mini-ITX mainboards (which go for twice as much as the average micro-ATX board and, while often fanless and low in power consumption, don't come anywhere near approaching the specs of the mainstream boards).
But he champions Intel for offering its own mini-ITX mainboard for the low, low price of $69.
Hell, I didn't know about this ... and I want one. Now.
I'm a huge mini-ITX fan -- a huge fan of PCs that are small, consume little power and have no fans in general. And if Intel wants to take this market, I'm all for it.
