Looking for a new computer? Looking for a very small new computer? The Espresso PC is about the size of a large graphing calculator. I would be afraid of losing that thing. The cost is prohibitive since it uses mostly notebook parts. Less expensive (but much larger) is the BookPC. This uses normal PC parts in a footprint about the size of a phonebook. Neither of these systems are very upgradeable (Cannot upgrade anything on the Espresso, cannot put any new cards into the Book), but neither is the very popular iMac! Got to install one of the new DV models yesterday, and it could not be much easier.
