Shuttle XPC X200M - CNET
CNET have reviewed the updated Shuttle XPC X200M PC with Windows Vista Home Premium installed. 'Shuttle's XPC X100 PC impressed us with its design this past summer, but its feature set lagged behind similar systems', such as Apple's Mac Mini and the WinBook Jiv Mini. With its updated XPC X200M, Shuttle brings the features in-line with what we expect from a smaller PC, adding an integrated analog TV tuner and 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, but now it's performance that's the problem, at least with this $1,149 baseline model.
Shuttle sent us this system with Windows Vista Home Premium, and we found anecdotally that Vista ran smoothly enough, but when we ran it through CNET Labs' benchmark tests, it lagged behind others in its class. We're also surprised that Shuttle doesn't offer an option for an HD optical drive. We attribute both of those issues to the XPC X200M's Intel chipset. Still, it is attractive, and it has the basics down, which might be enough to sway some of you.'
