A shift from multi-core power-gobbling monsters toward whisper-quiet systems with single-digit power consumption is rippling through the desktop market. This trend plays right into the hands of a Paris-based company called Linutop, which offers a miniature Linux-based desktop system. The latest version of the machine appeals to customers who are in the market for a machine with green credentials and low maintenance costs. After testing one myself, I found the tiny desktop has a lot going for it.
As green and small as it is, $435 is about $300 too much for a PC that doesn't include keyboard, mouse and monitor and only ships with 512 MB of RAM and 1 GB of flash memory.
