AdvantageSix Promises a Tiny ARM-based Computer

Posted by timothy on from the that-looks-tasty dept.

oberondarksoul writes "Drobe, one of the leading RISC OS news websites, is reporting that AdvantageSix have displayed an in-development version of their forthcoming A9home system. Running on a 400MHz Samsung ARM9 processor, and measuring approximately 6.6x4x2 inches, this ought to be a cheap -- and reasonably powerful -- RISC OS-based alternative to small form factor PCs or the Mac mini."

    2 main reasons , ARM development and Risc OS development . Perhaps also it would make a rather nice router if you have money to burn , or an internet booth type thing if you wanted.
    Its really not a product your average user would want.
    I really don't see why the artical refers to as an alternative to A MacMini or SFF PC , it just leads to alot of confusion.
