That's great news, the wife-approved PC will soon be a reality. Stylish looks,compact, and no noice.

But then again, doesn't most of those potential customers go with a laptop instead? Preferrably a quiet one of course.

Those who buy PC-towers are mostly after maximum performance for minimum money.

But there is a niche, HTPCs, DAWs etc, and the general direction of much lower power consumption is the _only_ way to go. Just don't expect average customers to follow quickly.

Good news... nice low power chip with AMD's new DTX board specification. Looks like Gigabyte just came out with a DTX form factor board: http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=7286

More 754 chips, but no 939? Lame.
