“Space is costly – and Dubai is a prime example of that. Offices/Homes are getting smaller and costlier by the day and at times, people no longer have the luxury of providing enough space for a full-sized PC on Office Desks or next to your TV in your bedroom. Taking such considerations into account, we have minuscule sized PCs such as Shuttle’s X series, AOpen and Apple’s Mac Mini. ASUS adds their name to this list with their recently announced Nova and we take a quick look at it today.”Here are some more Systems articles from around the web:

ASUS is thinking small

The ASUS Nova is a nicely sized system, good as an HTPC or better as a SFF office PC. It has an Intel 2160 (1.8GHz Dual Core) on an Intel 946GZ chipset with intgerated graphics, 1GB of RAM, a 120GB hard drive, and a DVD rewriter drive. It is about the same size as the Mac Mini, which seems to be it’s natural prey. Drop by t-break for a preview.
