A PC from the community for the community - Open-PC.com. VIA AMOS-3001 mini-PC packs tiny EPIA-P820 1080p Pico-ITX board. VIA have announced a new Pico-ITX board, together with a Fanless IPC which uses it, and together they add up to the most powerful and most compact system in the industry.
The VIA AMOS-3001 is the first model to use the VIA EPIA-P820 Pico-ITX board, which measures 10 x 7.2 cm and squeezes in a 1.2GHz VIA Nano CPU, 2GB of memory and the all-in-one VIA VX855 Media System Processor, good for 1080p HD video. While VIA are positioning the AMOS-3001 as an industrial PC, with broad temperature range resilience, we're thinking it would also make for a pretty impressive HTPC. Thanks to the EPIA-P820 it can manage high-bitrate H.264, WMV, VC1 and MPEG 2/4 output, while connectivity includes HDMI, VGA, gigabit ethernet and two USB 2.0 ports via a dedicated I/O board. Slotted into the AMOS-3001, meanwhile, and you also get COM ports together with two extra USB 2.0; the mini-PC measures just 15 x 4.6 x 10.8 cm.

Gdium » Home. A real Space Oddity arrives at PC Pro. You may remember that, some time ago, I blogged about an interesting little computer curio called the Space Cube.
Quite simply, it’s one of the smallest PCs in the world, with each side measuring around 2 inches square. I wrote that it looked cool, ran on a 300MHz processor and that it probably wouldn’t be sold outside of Japan, if at all. Well, now, we’ve actually gone and got hold of one – the only Space Cube in the UK that’s running Linux, in fact.
In the flesh it’s even more impressive than in pictures, inspiring awe and provoking disbelieving reactions across the PC Pro office.
