The Intel Dual Core is the Atom in the Eeebox. Yes its nice hardware, and I bought it for about a third of the price of a desktop machine, and that included a keyboard and mouse for it. My big requirements are low power usage so that I can run it off the solar and wind system constantly (although the monitor is on the paid_for_power at present). It uses 12V, 3A for the computer and 12V, 2A for the external hard drive (at maximum). I couldn't say that about the quad core - it probably runs 350W power supply or more - I can't find that out from the outside of the box. I think that I will be purchasing more micro-computers from now on, and that includes what I get for the workplace. And yes, I am older, working and well paid - that's how I can afford to put up solar panels and a wind generator :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
