VIA Epia SP 13000 Review

Posted by timothy on from the small-bigness dept.

Nehemiah writes "Epiacenter.com just published a review on the brand-new VIA Epia SP 13000 mini-itx mainboard. It's the first VIA Epia board with the CN400 chipset and, together with the new epiOS Linux distribution that is announced in the review, it seems to have a very good performance during MPEG2/MPEG4 playback."

    Well, well, well, another nerd on Slashdot complains about its editors but reads anyway. How is this "interesting" anymore? There should be a mod category called "expected". ;p
