Does Anyone Own A Shuttle PC? - GoFuckYourself.com

These look pretty cool and stylish - but cool and stylish aren't exactly the only requirements I'd look for when picking out a new pc.

Anyone own one of these yet and if so, what are your thoughts on the system?

I think it's kind of ugly.

not unless they have really improved the power supplies etc on them. I worked on one of them pry 3 years ago and it was a total piece of shit. Cheap ass power supply, hardly any room in the case for air to flow. No fucking way would I use one.

Very slightly offtopic, I wish I had a spaceshuttle.

We own several of them. They have been great. very few problems and they don't take up much room. Have been using them for 2+ years.

The G2 3200b is an iMac at the same price, yet the iMac has a smaller footprint and comes with 17" monitor

I used to run one on an old AMD Athlon XP mobile chip... overclocked the crap out of it and it still ran nice and cool - only problem is the limited upgradeability (i.e.: only 2 memory slots, only 1 expansion slot - now it is PCI-e 1x)

They are typically very stable, but also keep in mind if the mobo goes south, you have to RMA the entire unit, which can be a pain.

My friend has it. No problem for about two years now.
