      Great article here:
      http://gizmodo.com/5403000/dell-zino-hd-260-mini-home-theater-pc

      Best nugget of info from that article: You can lower the price by about $100 by downgrading the included version of Windows 7 from Pro to Home.

      What the hell is Dell problem.

      An 8" by 8" form factor.
      Gigabit LAN
      802.11 a/b/g/n support
      HDMI out
      Up to 8GB of RAM
      Two eSATA ports
      Still has an optical drive
      Starting at $229

      It's almost if Dell wants to stay in business.

      Wow site unavailability hitting Ben's hard today - I'd expect about 35 comments on this already.

      #6: don't worry, that AMD proc makes up for it.
      #7: Logitech makes a $50 bluetooth keyboard with built-in trackpad for PS3 that's a good alternative to the dinovo.
