The Shuttle XPC Prima series SX38P2 Pro supports the latest Intel® 45nm multi-core processors up to 1333MHz FSB and capable of handling 8GB of DDR2 memory running at 1066MHz over-clocked. Featuring Intel® X38 Express Chipset’s optimized system memory capabilities and with chipset over-speed removed reap maximal over-clocking performance. Shorter boot up time, load applications faster and additional power saving features are all part of Intel® Turbo Memory Technology. The Shuttle XPC Prima SX38P2 Pro rigged up to an 8-channel HD audio loaded with Dolby® Digital Live! and DTS™ 7.1 Connect surround sound will blast anything in its path.

Ok, so maybe it's more than a little different from the SD39P2. ;-) Looks like another solid contender from Shuttle.
