Orange You Glad There Is A PC This Small?
http://www.i4u.com/article951.html
From the W?BIC department comes a PC roughly the size of an orange. It doesn't run Windows though. It uses a new OS called T-Engine and geared towards the Chinese market. No clue why they don't use Linux if an unlicensed/free OS is all they are after.
It uses a 400MHz MIPS processor from NEC, has a 16MB flash ROM and 128MB of RAM and supports external resolutions of up to 1280 X 1024.

My opinion is with those puny specs it doesn't deserve to be called a PC.
If anything it's more like a huge PDA but with a built-in display.

Damn, I'm disappointed. I thought at first glance is was an ultra-cool looking Gamecube. An orange Gamecube would look sweet beside my purple one.

Argh! :twak: I think zesty is a bit strong - seems more juicy to me.
I have a question though - if this is vaporware, does that mean it's pulp fiction?

These puns are not peachy at all... they're fruity. I wonder if there is a version of tetris that runs nicely on this thing - could even dub it citris.
