Re: [PLUG] buying a new machine...
We just built two of these Shuttle machines, one AMD 1800+ and one P4
1.8. The P4 went out into the field yesterday and I'll be getting the AMD
box next week.
I think my users are going to LOVE these machines. They are cute as hell
and super quiet because of the liquid cooling. I'll know more next week
after I've had a chance to bang on it for a while.
Shuttle just released a new version of the P4 box that has 1 PCI & 1 AGP
slot instead of 2 PCI slots. This version also has the liquid CPU cooler
just like the AMD. I think I'm going to be ordering these new P4s from now on.
We're running WinXP Pro on the boxes so I can't comment on the Linux
ability of the machines.

I'm planning on buying a new machine in a few weeks. I saw some cool
stuff on TH about small machines, which is cool, especially for those
of us with multiple machines. And 3-d games aren't a big deal for me
until someone comes out with gcc3d. ;-)

Anyone have any experience with one of these and linux? I've seen a
couple linux reviews on them, but not as much detail as I'd like.
