Nividia is showing a new item at CES, called the Nvidia Ion, it's a very tiny integrated cpu/mobo/ram/video card in a box and its about the size of a video cassette. http://www.firingsquad.com/media/hirez.asp?file=/features/ces_2009_part2/images/09.jpg that would allow some really small table top machines to be built. |

There are already similar PCs out there. Here's just one example: http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/embedded/artigo/ |
| atog:
yes but the Artigo is a kit sold by a small company and requires self assembly. If the Ion comes to market it will be preassembled and cranked out faster at a lower price point and much easier to come by. Not that the Artigo isn't cool, and yes I am sure Nvidia stole a lot of their ideas from the Artigo. |
| Ginsu Victim:
I only see the picture. Do they mentioned an MSRP? |

Here is a link where they interviewed Drew Henry a GM for Nvidia. http://hothardware.com/Articles/NVIDIAs-Ion-Small-FormFactor-PC-Platform-/ |
