Few month ago, I bought a single-core barebone of this computer after looking for dual-core atom board. Should have waited little longer.
It is based on Intel's 945GC chipset paired up with an Atom 330 dual core processor working at 1.6GHz, 2GB of DDR2 memory and a 160GB SATA hard drive.
digitimes got a tip from sources that VIA will launch dual-core processor by the end of 2009. I doubt that they will be able to ship dual-core processor by end of 2009. However dual-core processor from VIA is long overdue. Since 2004, I've been following dual core processors from Intel, AMD and VIA. Intel and AMD both came out with dual-, triple-, and quad-core processors but none from VIA. Hope VIA can finally catch up with multi-core processor war.
By the way, VIA did released dual processors (not dual-core) Mini-ITX board, DP-310, on 2005. I was planning to purchase one but ended up buying a AMD Athlon 64. A few months later when I had extra cash, I wasn't able to find one online. I wonder whether this board was ever successful or failure?
