Post by: DwestSeattle on January 10, 2013, 12:07:38 pm

There's a new entry in the micro computer market at CES:

LMK if anyone tries it out on MC and how it works.  It's a little pricey vs. a basic laptop or a used PC off craigslist, but the form factor is attractive.

Here you can see how it performs in MC :
