Any of you guys checked the ' ' PISTON ' ' from a very renowned game portal/client/client VALVE out.. seems it will be launched within a month.. but must say.. things look a lot more different. I mean since its a modular Mobo solution .. dont know how good is it compared to those Android Pen drive sized PCs. The price for these cane be as low as 2.2k .. like in this ebay.in link


Its got AMD APUs and upcomming ones 'Kabini, Richland, Kaveri, Temash', Already can run dual monitors !!! effortlessly (Cant say much about gaming on dual monitors ) and it only takes 20 watts :rolleyes:.. the compactness and the design is good but is it a VFM product ?? :rolleyes:

Valve and Xi3 show off "Piston" Steam Box prototype at CES - TechSpot :licklips:
 
FYI I love the design , Imagine using a very silent NAS drive with this configured for media server!!!! Even if it were a bit bigger also and am waiting for a 1 TB SSD support to come out and reasnable price (Not very soon likely I guess) and this could really kick a&*^!!!
