HOME OFFICE / DESKTOP PCS

  World's Smallest Desktop Revealed

By Mike Wheeler | Wednesday | 13/08/2008

What is claimed to be the world's smallest desktop/nettop PC designed for avid web surfers and prolific emailers will be released in September.

Asus's Eee Box is designed to work in conjunction with a household's main PC set up and does not have the full functions of a normal desktop PC.

Users cans read and respond to mailbox matter, make it their own personal jukebox streaming music as well as pictures and video from a media centre or home server, or become a chatterbox and shoot the breeze with friends via VoIP.

The Box can be used for enjoying Internet Protocol Television (IPTV). Today, thousands of programs are freely available on the web, allowing users to personalise and watch a roll of TV shows with ease. With ASUS Express Gate technology, the Eee Box will start up in about five seconds, and it is also a lockbox offering good security.

About the size of a paperback book, users can reclaim the desk space previously lost to bulkier, intrusive desktop systems. Furthermore, it can even be mounted to standard to LCD displays to save solution.
A touch sensor button and vertical placement exudes a seamless and futuristic outlook, while smooth curves further accentuate a refined form that complements most interior designs.
