Two MiniITX A1's models are on the way, both G3. The first one is very similar to the "beta" versions that was sold earlier. The price for this one will be $600USD/500EUR, excluding VAT. The other version will also offer some more features such as Firewire, Gigabit Ethernet and an additional (custom?) PCI connector, and will cost $700USD/600EUR.

Two new µ-A1's models on the way : Comment 14 of 170 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Olegil on 28-Aug-2004 14:41 GMT | In reply to Comment 8 (lurker): I wouldn't even BEGIN speculating about a "street" price for the industrial version. It's not AIMED at the street (ok, I wouldn't aim anything towards the street if it costs 400UKP :-P You know what I mean, though...). It's aimed for industrial usage where you will never need to put in more memory or upgrade the CPU (set top box, DVD/DivX players, arcade game systems etc, etc).
I'm fairly certain I would save more than 50UKP per unit by using the PC/104 interface instead of trying to use USB, parallell port or PCI to control things like LEDs, LCD, buttons on the front etc. Simple is good :-)
But for a small form-factor computer on my desk it would be a waste of money. I would rather get the cheaper one as it can be expanded later. |
