Shuttle SS51 review

Quote

The SS51 did very well in our tests, and we did verify that it could indeed be used in, and handle the heat and stress accompanied with, extreme LAN gaming. Gamers rejoice, for there is finally a small ultra portable computer system that is powerful enough to rocket by 10,000 points in 3DMark 2001. I for one am extremely glad that this day is finally here. No more carting around 40-50lb. computer systems to play games at great framerates at a LAN. You will, however, still have to carry that 70lb. 21" monitor...ugh! However, LCD's are getting cheaper and I myself have considered looking into a decent 17" LCD panel to take to LAN's. This would not only save a TON of space in the car, but would be much lighter as well. I already have a separate gaming computer, as well as extra equipment such as keyboard, surge suppressor, mouse, ethernet cable, etc. I have all that in a box just sitting waiting for a LAN to come around so that all I have to do is grab it and go. I could easily find something a bit bigger that would hold the SS51 and a LCD screen all in one spot so that I could just toss in the SS51 and go.
