Hi,
Small form factor is the main attraction. Space is a priority with the proposed installation/purchase.
After tea will borrow the neighbours vacuum cleaner and see how far I progress!

Not sure what type of question this is. Have you ever seen a Shuttle XPC? http://us.shuttle.com/Models.aspxkwevej wrote:just my curiosity: what is the advantage of such a PC ?

They pretty much started the standard for smaller sized PCs. No longer as impressive as they were as many OEM manufacturers provide small PCs based around mobile CPUs, etc.
