Low Powered Mini-Server for the Masses

ServerSam writes "Sudhian has a review up on EmergeCore's "IT in a Box" IT100. Designed for small business use, it comes equipped with a Transmeta Crusoe 533MHz, 128MB RAM, 20GB IBM TravelStar, 802.11b Access Point, and boots from a 32MB Flash card. The IT100 is powered by a 60 watt external PSU and is smaller than a PS2."

I think my Cisco router has more behind it...

Slashdotted Already?

[cerebralsugar]

I guess that rules out using it as a web server...

[Zog The Undeniable]

Must be using one of those portable server thingies.

I think...

[metamatic]

...they're using it to run their web site.

[Anonymous Coward]

Funny how PS2 doesn't mean what it used to.

I don't trust them either...

[twoslice]

... i dont trust reviewers who have those god awful 'mini' 'cube' PCs as their workstation!

I believe that they are all members of the Borg collective just waiting to have critical mass to assimilate us all...

If you just put on a tinfoil hat, you too will see the real conspiracy. The Borgs have brain altering waves to make you trust them...

Bah.

Wait until the nano-itx boards come out. I have a *TINY* pc planned. 1Ghz CPU, DVD and TV tuner included.

Is that a PC in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?

Look at the power of emergicore!

What do you say ? I can't HEAR you !

Re:Cobalt RaQ and Cobalt Qube?

[ThogScully]

and remembering never to do stupid things, like post the URL on slashdot. :)

Looks to me like your URL is posted to slashdot every time you post a message. http://www.danamania.com appears under your username.

But don't worry - your secret's safe with me ;-)

Re:hmm

Derrr, try a text to speech system or something.

Re:Cobalt RaQ and Cobalt Qube?

[danamania]

Thanks!

I shall remember to mention in each message not to click on the above link. That could have done some real damage! ;)

(PS. Don't click on the link)

With a sig like yours I'm surprised anyone would talk to you at all, even if you did have a working mini PC in your pocket.

Re:Smaller than a PS/2?

[pete-classic]

I was just going to ask how many MCA slots it has. Thanks for taking the wind out of my sails.

[JohnSmith42]

I agree with everything you said, but the heat dissipation. If i didn't have my two computers during winter I would freeze to death. Taking my computer away is like taking vodka away from a russian in siberia!

Re:Smaller than a PS/2?

[ptomblin]

I used to have a PS/2 model 80 under my desk at work. IBM thoughfully put a large handle on the top so that when the urge to throw it through the window got too great, you could get a good grip on it.

Damn thing probably weighed 40 pounds.

Re:Smaller than a PS/2?

[sharkey]

Suppose you go into a store, and ask for a mouse. The guy behind the counter says "USB?", and that's not what you want. What is your response?

Well, the type of person that would walk past the shelves loaded with mice to ask for a mouse would most likely say, "No, I want a mouse!"

When did anything less than 9 out of 10 become crappy?

The first time an eBay-er complained about a positive feedback not containing the string "A+++++++++!!!!!!!".
