| thanks for the heads-up about the post-edit-- let's see, the AOpen barebones mini-pc (MP945VDR i believe) was $300 at Buy.com-- had to add a socket M cpu (intel T7200), a 2.5 inch notebook hard drive, and SODIMM ram memory-- so that would be about $500 total for those-- I had them lying around anyway from a notebook that died-- so I got lucky on that stuff-- the mini-pc kit included the optical drive (CDRW + DL-DVDRW), board, and case-- it has onboard ethernet, but I also added ($30) a mini PCI internal WIFI card-- be advised, this unit is not exactly a "hard core gamer" rig, but they recently came out with the latest form of that model, MP965, with latest onboard Intel graphics chip (X3100), mine only has the "950" on it, but suitable for what I use it for- |
