It's small, but not too small
We told you small was all the rage these days, and like Lenovo, Canada-based Stealth Computer Corporation promises not to compromise by delivering "a PCI card expansion slot in a powerful small computer".
The computer, Stealth's LPC-450PCI Little PC, offers an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, measures in at 10" x 5.8" x 2.8" and weighs approximately 4.5kgs.
Housed in its robust anodised aluminium chassis, you'll also find a PCI slot - a feature missing from Stealth's previous LPC-450.
"Customers can simply add specialised I/O, video, data acquisition and communications cards, something that cannot be achieved without resorting to larger clunky desk top computers" said Stealth's President & CEO, Ed Boutilier.
It might be small, but in addition to the PCI slot you'll also get plenty of connectivity. This Little PC offers LAN, two serial, three USB, FireWire, Video, Audio, PS/2 Mouse & Keyboard ports. You also have the option of a 80GB, 120GB or 160GB hard drive, or an alternative Solid State Drive.
With its base configuration, the Steal LPC-450PCI carries a retail price of $1450.00. If you really want one, you'll be happy to hear that Stealth do ship internationally.
