Do you want a SMALL computer?

Okay, so (maybe) you've seen Google Glass - but I mean a "proper" computer.
With (ahem) Windows 8.1 etc. :cool:

Look here:

http://www.hannspree.eu/en/computing/snnpdi1b-micro-p

:eek:

A perfectly usable Windows computer, the size of a (admittedly, large-ish) USB stick!

For less than £170 at DABs, too ....... or (if you hunt) !150 on auction websites.

Tempted to get one just to see how good it is.:D

I've been pretty amazed by the Raspberry Pi and what that can do for just over £30 for a complete starter kit. Running Windows on it sfaik isn't an option though.

Impressive. It'll have many disappointing features though, like being Atom powered, negligible storage, etc., but may suit some users sometimes.

Good luck with getting Windows run usably on it...

Why not; it runs VERY well on phones and tablets!
And the benchmark is better than the old "Atom's" !

And they were used in "Netbooks"! :cool:

Show me one phone which runs Windows 8. And I don't mean Windows 8 Mobile...

The new Asus Eeebook x205 seems to cope quite well thank you, with the same chip.

As a concept AND as a "usable computer", this will have it's place.
It looks like a viable - and, importantly, CHEAP - computing alternative.
Good on 'em, I say.

Not being tech savvy I don't quite understand how you get "A full PC experience in less than 10cm and 40 grams" without a keyboard & screen.

Ha ha -- that really is appalling. At first, I assumed the machines were custom-built to your specification... What else could "specifically designed" mean?!

But no. And even more ridiculously, they claim that, "Hannspree reserves the right to alter design and specifications... without notice."

So your specific needs are ignored completely. Surely it's illegal misrepresentation to talk such contradictory nonsense!
