Giada i53 MiniPC

[Tom]

I just watched a review of the Giada MiniPC.

Basically its a very small bookshelf style computer. Has a Intel Core i3/i5 cpu and 2GB to 8GB ram. You even have a selection of operating systems.
It looks rather interesting if you want small, quiet, unobtrusive, and has a little grunt.

It looks a bit hard to get one with the specs cranked up. And its a bit pricier than I was expecting. but it is a neat little box.

How much HD space?

I'm curious because I saw this little Hivefactoid today: "Price of 1 gigabyte of storage over time: 1981 $300,000 :: 1987 $50,000 :: 1990 $10,000 :: 1994 $1,000 :: 1997 $100 :: 2000 $10 :: 2004 $1 :: 2012 $0.10"   



edit: total product price around $500 CDN includes HD storage 500 gigabytes ... which woulda set you back about 150 Billion back when Reagan was first elected... oddly enough if you HAD that kind of cash at that time, you probably coulda paid off the US Debt: http://www.usdebtclock.org/2000.html  :blink: (actually, not quite, only approx. one seventh of it(!))
