Excellent. Planning on getting one of these for portable use, but I hope the prices come down a wee bit.

What is the price?

 

[bluemax]

I am **SO** glad I held out and didn't buy anything yet.... this is my baby! Oh yeah!

Now it's just a matter of deciding between AMD or Intel... The AMD machine has AGP8x whereas the P4 machine doesn't....
I noticed some pictures have a 3.5" floppy, others have flash card readers.... I hope you can choose. I'd use a floppy over flash, myself.

Can't be too much more than the overpriced (IMHO) Shuttle XPC's! :frown:

 

[KDOG]

any good pics of it? It certainly looks like a contenda!!! Will definetly consider it!!!

 

[KDOG]

Oh ok, I scrolled down Niiiiiccceee... Will DEFINETLY consider that!!!

 

[Sid59]

oooh .. there goes my plans for shuttle.

 

[NeuronBasher]

Drool.

Looks cool... but why the floppy drive? Also, they chose the KM400 over the nForce2...odd.

In case this link didn't work for some (such as myself) here's another link: MSI News Release (MEGA PC)

BTW, it looks really good...

Well, with some minor problems with nForce2 and the cost involved, I can understand SiS or VIA. I'd perfer SiS. [shrug]

And floppy? Well, I have hundreds of 'em and would like to keep 'em. I'm a floppy freak!


EDIT: WHOA! IT looks even better in GREEN!! Hope they have a blue... I *am* BlueMax after all....

 

[deathorglory]

OH MAN THAT IS SWEET!!!

I'm so glad I didn't buy a new PC.
Does anyone know the release date or how much?

 

[deathorglory]

I think the orange one is Intel and the green one is AMD. I might be wrong.

 

[bluemax]

So far we've only found pictures of the two colours... I hope they're not tied to what platform they run.
'Course... they're both snazzy-lookin' and I'd be happy with either one.

 

[sandorski]

Does look sweet, but cost would be my concern. It would be nice to be able to buy the mobo/case, separately, that way would likely fit within my budget.

 

[Krk3561]

Is the SiS651 chipset any good?

 

[mrman3k]

I think I would take it over the Shuttle.
