[H]ardocp did a short review on the first gen (current one posted is 3rd gen) right
here.

As of yet I'm still waiting on my Maxima so no use and trying to do a writeup. But this has several advantages over a 40+ pound computer. Couldn't find a price so I'm guessing must call.

Let me know what you think!!!

Nice.

 

Ok it is fast enough to run any program out there currently. The bad part is the video card! Will not run alot of the newer games or will be medium to slow on something like quake3.

Will hook up to a monitor or TV display.

You can have 4 controllers (4 usb, video games gallore)

In response to those that aren't sure WTF I just put up.

Other details are just a little speacial.

 

Don't ALL laptops today weigh about 1-3 pounds? You could just buy a brand new Compaq that is like 2 pounds, right?

 

You ever held a Toshiba Tecra500 CDT or a HP Omnibook 4150? You will need to see a doctor because of bodily injury.

 

which world are you living in?? 1-3 pounds for a laptop??? the lightest compaq has a made is a 1700 series which ways 6 pounds.

 

Ok your right 7 pounds. They don't feel heavy though.

 

I am still happy with my 8 pound 1800T compaq.. hehehe

 

I think you have lost the point of this for a built-in unit.

 

they say that mine weighs 7.8lbs, it feels more like 10lbs! thats what i get for wanting a 15" screen.
concerning the small pc thing, i got this catalog in the mail from www.tigerdirect.com , they claim to have the "world's smallest pc", it was bigger than this one, but it had a cd(or dvd)rom, a 8mb vid card(couldn't have been 16mb), it was about the size of a external cd rw. bad thing is i can't find it on the site, all i remember that it was $500. if i find it, i'll post the link.

 

i found it:

and sorry, i was wrong, only 4mb video kinda crappy for playing games, quake2 or quake3 will definately not work on this thing. i guess its good for mp3's? crappy games? still pretty sweet for $500.
