Wow, I want like 4 of these! VIA Hardware has a new small form factor PC in their hands. AND! It comes with an AGP slot! LAN PARTY!!
In Shuttle's SS50 review, we said that we showed you the Shuttle SV24 last October. We then told you about the SS50, and the different uses for this system. Though the SV24/SS50 did some tasks very well, there was one arena which left you wanting more. This would be the realm of 3D games. With the fastest card available for these systems probably being the Voodoo5 5500 PCI, it's obvious that the SV24/SS50 would not be the greatest choice for a small LAN box. Today we are going to show you a product from Arprotek which is attempting to fill this gap. I attend many LAN's myself, usually local ones but other times larger ones. I know what it is like to cart around your computer to a LAN, and it can be a drag sometimes. However, the e-Cube barebone system from Arprotek (a.k.a. the CF-S868) seems to be aimed at fixing this. The CF-S868 is a small system which is easy to transport and comes with an AGP slot, allowing for excellent 3D gaming.
