Neuros LINK Mixes Quiet, Aesthetics, and Ubuntu

jonniee writes with a link to Dr. Dobb's Journal's look at a rather cool living-room-suitable media-centric computer from Neuros (presented as being suitable mostly for developers and serious hobbyists for now), excerpting: "The Neuros LINK is essentially a quiet x86 PC running Ubuntu Linux with an ATI graphics card delivering video via VGA, DVI, and HDMI output. ... What makes the LINK such a compelling platform for these folks and Linux/open source developers in general is the recognition that a real business entity is stepping forward to spend the money necessary to market and commercialize what tech enthusiasts have been doing for years."

    Somebody up more!

    If they went with Nvidia they could have had lower price, better Linux performance, better drivers and importantly VDPAU (video accelleration, drops CPU usage by 90%).
