Stealth Computers: NY Times on Mini ITX Modding
securitas writes "What's smaller than a breadbox? Or a toaster? Or a teddy bear? The New York Times has just discovered mini-ITX based computers (Google /CNET mirror, minus the pictures). It's a nice overview of the mini-ITX scene and suggests that small form computers are a hot growth area while the traditional PC business languishes."
Worse is that he's a friend of a friend for me, so he shows up first on almost all stories.
I really hate Dan Patrick.
...you thought "New York Times, Registration Required" was the name of the newspaper. New York Times [snip] [link to Google copy of article]
And in other news, NYT(reg required) reports that Satan is wondering who turned off the heat. Also, NYT(reg required) reports that pigs were spotted on apporach for Laguardia, but nobody noticed because of the Concorde. Meanwhile, WMDs were actually found in Iraq, except only aljazira(sp?) reported it, so nobody actually believed it.
I mean seriously- you first-time-readers might not realize what a big deal this is! This has got to be a milestone on slashdot- "first story ever which contained a NY times article with a no-registration-required link provided in the actual story".
Now, for the obligatory conspiracy angle- was it editors only approving articles w/reg-required links, or were they editing the stories? Or are the slashdot 'editors'(term used loosely) little green men from another world?
Please help metamoderate.
this site is way better.
