VIA introduces ‘world’s smallest’ x86 form factor

I post this more because of the potential behind it. Just think about
things you could build a computer out of! Probably not powerful enough
to be your main HTPC, but hopefully at some point we get Software MCE
Extender that then can maximize its potential.

Report

This new form factor specifies motherboards measuring only 10cm x 7.2cm, or 3.9" x 2.8"-tiny enough to fit in somebody's palm. VIA has already released a Pico-ITX reference motherboard, the VT6047, and it intends to announce the first commercial products based on the new form factor "shortly." As luck would have it, VIA Arena has also posted a preview of the Pico-ITX form factor that includes several pictures of the VT6047 reference mobo.
