Everex's mini PC
The Everex mini PC
Remember the earliest computers that used to require more floor space than two car garage. Available only to the military and science divisions these physically massive data processors of the WWII era might as well have been science fiction to the general public.
The Personal Computer revolution of the 1970’s and 80’s saw the size reduced for home use and then came the advent of the tinier, portable laptop. Now the evolution has entered a new arena of transportable miniature electronics.
Everex Mini PC - Keyboard and mouse not included
Designed to compete with the Mac mini Everex has released its latest small, affordable and versatile Linux based PC. Armed with a DVD Burner and 120GB of storage, the only weakness of the system compared to its main rival is that it only has 512MB of RAM as opposed to the 1GB available on the latest Mac.
Sold as a standalone unit sans keyboard and monitor, the Everex may not be the end word on this emerging technology but certainly entices with its price tag (around $500 US), reduced body size and practical accessories.
Vital Statistics:
Intel Dual-Core T2130 (1.86GHz)
Intel GMA950 Video chip
Realtek ALC268 audio,
Gigabit ethernet,
Firewire,
4 USB ports
Audio In/Out.
