Weighing in at less than 1kg and packing a Intel Atom CPU, 1GB of DDR2 Ram and a 80GB hard drive this should be a nice little system for basic net surfing and email checking. It will come pre-loaded with a linux based operating system, but it won’t be long before people are trying to run Windows XP on it.

There is no official statement or any further information on the release date or pricing. The only problem is that with hardware costs becoming lower the ASUS Eee Box B202 would need to be priced around the £200 mark, because when you look around you can get a lot more go for your money from various other online retailers.

Expandability is also an option with the DX2250 but with 4 USB 2.0 ports at the rear and a further 2 at the front anything is possible.

After telling you about the Pixelotto site last week I thought I’d let you know about an exciting new social networking site called TickMe that launched very recently.

Forget about MySpace and FaceParty as these are getting fairly dated and abused now. This new site brings in the much needed extra level of privacy as well as a cool dating angle. The aim of the site is to get ticks from people that either want to be your friend or fancy you. There are 3 different levels of ticks, Hey You, Looking Good and Hot Stuff. If you tick them back you will get a mutual tick and be able to send messages to each other. You can tick people on the site that you would like to get to know more and wait for the mutual tick to come. Sounds very addictive!

By being part of groups you will meet lots of new people. You can also invite people that you like to a group in a way to get them to notice you. Setting up new groups is easy and you can also set up your own private groups just for you and your friends to invite people to. Find people in the advanced search that match your ideal partner.

One part that I like is the Tick League… who will be top of the ticks for this week, or the most ticked overall? All in all it looks like a really cool site that is bound to be the next best thing… so remember you saw it here first!

This Shuttle XPC X100 sets new standards in the PC arena and is the smallest system that Shuttle have produced. It is around 5 cms high and has a footprint of an A4 piece of paper. So roughly the size of a ream of paper. The size does not mean it has lost any performance qualities and the XPC X100 has a fantastic spec.

Expect to see the XPC X100 come with a choice of IntelR Core Solo or Duo T2400 processors, a 250 gb Sata HDD, ATI Radeon x1400 graphics card, optical drive, wireless LAN, Firewire, multiple USB ports and a multi card reader. Shuttle have also kept the Silent X Technology which is amazing. The Shuttle XPC X100 looks extremely sleek and will save a huge amount of space on your desk, especially if you use it in the upright position.

This MyKeyO’s patented keyboard is compatible with both Macs and PC’s and comes in black and white. It uses USB and PS/2 so nobody loses out on this great invention.
