Saintsong Releases A New Mini PC

Posted by Hemos on from the pretty-new-hardware dept.

A reader writes "Saintsong, our favorite manufacturer of tiny PC's (see here and here) is at it again. They've released the TX2 version of the Cappuccino PC everyone drooled over not to long ago. It's designed by Gingko corp., the same folks who designed the iMac. The new unit includes 2 Firewire ports and an additional 2 USB ports over it's predecessor, the Cappuccino GX1. Unfortunately it appears that Saintsong is only distributing it in kit form, so you'll have to supply your own socket 370 processor, RAM, hdd, etc. No prices are listed, but it's still a slick looking toy."

    Imagine if we locked up all of the people who post:

    Imagine a beowulf cluster of these

    in a dark cave and made a beowulf cluster out of their PCs!

    Do you have any idea how powerful that cluster would be?

    Undoubtedly I'm wrong for using Mozilla 0.9, but why the fuck does everybody insist on using plugins for which there is no universal support? And why the fuck /doesn't/ Mozilla have any goddam plugin support?

    I'm getting pretty fucking tired of "click here to get plugin" messages - when there's no goddamn plugin that works.

    Fuck.
