It's a serial port and an ethernet socket with not much in between!

That's grim.

I've only seen a couple of custom PC cases that look any good.

This is the smallest fully functioning PC i have ever seen



It measures a mere 2×2x2.2inches. It is a full featured PC 300 MHz CPU and 64 MB of SDRAM. It has variety of ports including usb, ethernet, microphone and monitor port.

What's the point of it being small, though, if it can't do fek all.

You may as well buy a calculator.
