I'm proud to welcome all and sundry to enjoy the second installment in our 'TechnoVoyeur' series. In this episode we have taken a close look at the contents of the VIA EPIA Pico-ITX package.
The vista installation CD booted perfectly fine with my picoitx motherboard, installed without a hitch and it is running off an SSD sata drive, which worked absolutely fine once the bios had been flashed.
i can run crysis nao? yey.

ESD warnings only for "real product", not "dummy demo boards"

tiny but damn useless!
if you wanna run a SSD sata drive on it then... FUCK YOU! (thats not me speaking thats the hardware)
and forget vista!
even XP was imposible to install!
Ubuntu works fine but you can run linux on a toaster!
Hell i challenge you to find any thing you cant run linux on!
to be fair Vista is only compatible with 9 of 10 document shreders....
but i needed the speach recognition for my project.

Of course yeah. People who read this should definately go and find some wool, rub it against their mobo's and stuff. I do that all the time ;)

When pico (& nano) itx hits 2.0GHz & up,
it will be pretty frickin' amazing!
Although it's still really cool now!
Erm...
Send me one for testing, eh?!?
