It's not very powerful, but if it's noiseless and consumes only 5 W then it may be ideal for running test matches 24 hours a day...

Even if small, I can't believe that they sell PCs with only 256MB of RAM. There's no way in this world that I'm buying a PC for WinXP with only that RAM.

A much better solution would be a simple laptop, since they are practically silent, run cool and consume low power.

Practically silent, on 100% load (chess analysis)... certainly not my laptop! :roll:

Not mine either (sounds like an airplane) but I agree 256 MB is not much.
