"Sleek, Book-Sized Asus PC Not For Gamers"

By Mendelson Tiu | Published:25/01/2008

Figuring out where to place your PC can be tough, especially if space is an issue. The Nova P22 is Asus’s answer to users who want a small PC (this one's a little larger than the latest Harry Potter book) that is easy to hook up and comes with programs to support them every step of the way.

The most surprising thing about the Nova P22 is its small profile. With a dimension of 231.14 x 184.15 x 50.8 millimetres, this small form factor (SFF) PC can be placed on top of any desk without looking messy. Out of the box, users will be able to find the PC, a remote control, a DVI to D-Sub adapter, a mini jack to S/PDIF adapter, an AC adapter and power cord, a stand, and two DVDs used for system support and recovery.

This piano black PC goes with the minimalist approach and makes do without the complicated buttons and ports, making it easy for anyone to get the Nova started. Up front, users can find a slot-in optical drive, an optical drive eject button, a touch sensitive power switch, an IR port (for the remote control), and built-in speakers. The back of the computer hosts four USB ports (two of which will be used to connect the keyboard and mouse), a DVI port, an Ethernet port, a line-in jack, headphone jack, and microphone jack. A docking connector at the bottom of the unit is present at the bottom of the unit and will be used by Asus for future expansion of the Nova P22.
