i also bought one thru citibank.
overall, the performance is good (7 out of 10).
the sound speaker is relatively low and has low battery life of almost 2hours only.
it doesnt look like sturdy..but still affordable and ok for it’s price of P26,100.

I just bought a Dell Vostro A840 through Citibank which has a tie up with Silicon Valley at P 26,600 only, 14 months to pay at P 1,900/month. Intel Core 2 Duo, very affordable.

Downside: Has only 2 usb ports, no mic, no speaker, no built in web cam.

Over-all satisaction: 8 out of 10.

Apparently I was referring to pico-itx systems, not mini-itx. Hahaha!

Even worse was me finding out that a basic pico-itx system (VIA C7 1.0 Ghz + 1 GB RAM + VIA VX700) costs almosts as much as a complete Phenom X4 system.

Oh, I forgot they were classified as mini-ATX. I meant those really low profile rectangular mini-ITX PC’s like the ones on http://www.via-itx.com or http://www.itxdepot.com... Qube’s height fits my requirement right, if only they weren’t as wide as they were tall, or the other way around if I wanted a wide one instead.

Have you tried the Qube? They sell customizable XPCs.

AMD Puma laptops please! Ahehehe… But that’s so unlikely.

By the way Yuga, do you know where I can buy customizeable mini-ITX systems here? I’m dying to get myself a VIA EPIA M700 (or a VIA Nano equivalent) or an Intel Atom 330 + Intel 945 whatever (when it becomes available) so I can attach it to the back of our LCD TV and surf the web in 32″ glory.
