Title: Potential "tiny mame" candidate?
Post by: Aceldamor on January 30, 2009, 09:27:54 am

Dell is selling the mini9 for about 170.00 bucks at the moment....lots of potential for a crazy small MAME port from this.

I personally dont' have the extra lewt....but I can see mountain making a crazy insane mini MAME or some juke madness from this tiny thing.

Those things are pretty neat.  I have a very bulky lap top that I use at home (from 2003) as my main computer... which consists of surfing the internet and using it to manage iTunes.  This little thing might be a nice living room solution.

That was my thought. I sent that link to my friend asking if he needed a small "Hulu box".
