Hello,

Is there any word on potential for the "MiniPC" versions of haswell boards?

:)

Looking to purchase a haswell/nvidia desktop system, but the form factor and portability of the MiniPC systems on sale here are ideally what i'm aiming for.

Thanks.

Good evening

Mini-ITX is a little behind - but by the end of the week they should hopefully be available.

Just making a quick post to say that I'm highly interested in buying a haswell mini pc too... it's the first set of intel processors where the integrated graphics are actually decent, making them perfect for mini and quiet PCs where you want a little light gaming in addition to productivity.

Can't wait to see them added to the site. :)

I'm tired of dealing with giant noisy towers, they feel like dinosaur technology in today's world of smartphones and tablets... a mini-desktop is rather nice though, no idea why most manufacturers don't bother to sell them.. only apple and acer seem interested in bothering to make a small computer... and the acer ones are crap and the apple ones are overpriced, so you have to go to a custom place like this site if you want to get one.

The Mac Mini used to be a relatively good price since there wasn't much competition, but I just checked now and £500 gets you:
- 2.5GHz Intel dual-core
- 4GB (maximum!) RAM
- 500GB HDD
- A "nice" case

Pretty terrible value. The only thing it has going for it is the Thunderbolt port.
