Re: [LUG] Small desktop computers

 

Hey Neil

Have you a link please? I would be interested to see. Low powered computers, small storage, very interested. I think they are gaining popularity for the same reason I would use them - daughter's. They don't need power just a homework box.Â

I was looking around the internet today and happened on so called small desktop computers. When I converted the dimensions to inches (millimetres, what are they?) I couldn't believe it. I thought I must have made a mistake, but other versions seemed to confirm it. And they mostly seem to have Linux installed.

If I am right, to my mind it would look just stupid, a diddy box like that alongside a normal sized screen and keyboard. And yet I see a claim that they are becoming more popular. Really? And how would you get inside the box if necessary?

Can anyone confirm this, or am I missing something?

thanks,

Neil
