    Hey,

    This looks like a brilliant machine for a HTPC, Shuttle site, ebuyer.com, PixMania.ie

    Basically it's an Ultra Small Form Factor PC with Dual Core atom Processor and ION2 Graphics card. Has space for a 2.5" HDD/SSD and a single 200 pin SO-DIMM slot supporting up to 2GB RAM. Also has a slim optical drive bay but I doubt I'll make use of that.
    Best part is that it's fanless so completely silent!
    Throw Ubuntu on via a USB stick and install boxee and you're away!

    Only question is what's the best way to get it? Would anyone know of a shop near Dublin that would stock something like this? Next best thing an online shop cheaper than PixMania (€252+€15 delivery). The ebuyer price has gone up a few pound since I last looked at it a couple of weeks ago.

    I've found one on ebay.ie that would cost about €225 but I'm sure it'll be hit with customs charges??

    Any help appreciated!
