cek highlights an Engadget article on a new Pico-ITX Motherboard from Via.
Engadget immediately dismiss the board as a failure dut to its lack of processing grunt, low resolution video and lack of casings. They’re thinking this is a missed opportunity in the Media Center category.
But wait! Is that a VGA and an Ethernet port I see? 1Ghz processing, and on board video? No Linux support? Hmmm…. if only there was some kind of new platform coming out, which needed a small footprint, but not a lot of power? Maybe for some kind of headless unit? Any thoughts?

The big question is: how many SATA ports does it have

CoryB: The big question is: how many SATA ports does it have
1x Sata, 1x IDE and 4x USB? Sounds like a perfect WHS mobo! Okay, maybe Gbit networking would be a plus but a great idea.
I’m trying to see if I can find the right case or powersupply to actually hold this thing, no luck yet.

Put it into a ‘Western Digital World Edition II’, will fit nicely and this comes with two Sata Drives (1TB in total)!!
