PC In An XP Box

wolrahnaes writes "There is an article up on mini-itx.com explaining how to fit a fully functional PC based on a VIA M10000 EPIA board in to a Windows XP box. The author even explains how he then fit it in to a Red Hat box and used a sensor to tell the bootloader which OS to run based on which box it is in."

  1. That's not a small computer, THIS is a small... by MythMoth · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I thought that project was kind of dull when I first saw it. It's not improved with time. On the other hand, I really like the look of the new Nanode PC from Mini-ITX (same site), designed by Hoojum.

    Take a look at this picture and the cat. Now look at your desktop PC and imagine a cat standing next to it. The nanode really is that small.

    I want one.

    The site with the rest of the info is here.

    The average case temperature is 35deg C. Paper, wood, tinder, sawdust, none of it will burn at 35deg C.

    Of course, literate geeks should know that paper ignites at Fahrenheit 451, (233 C).
