ARM?
You could just sellotape a Beagle board into it - strengthen it and
put the screen on the underside of the top and the keyboard on top of
the board. Genius! I've GOT to do that. :P

Yeah, a Phenom II would be a nice little pizza oven though. Have you
seen the pipes coming out of the DEFAULT heatsink?


Yeah, well, I've seen the 3 core Phenom II, not seen the 6 core yet. I do wonder how things are going if eventually PCs will be attached to central heating systems to heat the house :-)
