Anyone has a Shuttle XPC?

**oldblue** · February 23rd, 2006 06:25 AM

I have a shuttle xpc at home. sk43g entry level. very convenient gamitin at sobra luwag lalo na pag i-partner mo sa 15" LCD monitor.

I also bought shuttle dvd rw yun aluminum bezzle para match na match sa aluminum casing.

masikip lang mag-assemble sa loob but after that ok na gamitin kahit san ko ilipat sa bahay madali lang.

ok sya if you're doing like multi-media applications like firewire. kasi built-in na sa xpc, so cable na lang bilhin mo, you can connect your firewire cable videocam at home na din.

pero yun mini-keyboard/ optical mouse/speakers that come with it, wala kwenta.
didnt use kasi ang hirap gamitin and sobrang low ang build quality, and the speakers are at par lang dun sa tig 100 na speakers na available sa malls.

here's a sample nun sa akin. I bought it around 10k sa PC Shack last Nov. 2k5. sila yun distro dito

oldblue: i thought pc shack didn't sell directly and only sold through dealers .. nagkakandahirap pa ako kausapin yung salesman sa pc corner ..

mas maganda focus nemesis na case atleast ikaw makakapili ng board(matx) na ilalagay mo plus mas cheaper 4k lang w/ 350w psu and upgradable pa.

looking at the drive bay .. it looks a lot wider .. and i'm not one that like to look at computer guts .. although yung makapili ka ng sarili mong board is a good selling point ..

IMO you can do away with the floppy drive, almost all the new boards can do a CD boot.

Space saver talaga, pero limited ang upgradability, lahat ng magiging add-ons mo external na. :D

sadly you cant. lalo na pag install ka ng SATA drives. I just bought 250GB SATA this week, yun xp hinahanap sa diskette yun SATA Drivers. tried booting using bootable CD and Bootable USB Drive, no success!

bad trip 'tong SATA na to talaga. pero kung naka Vista na daw puwede na daw.
