Destined to Reign

We love us a tiny computer, and the Nova P22 from Asus certainly delivers the goods. The first time we spotted this computer it was a playful Japan-bound orange and white box, but it looks all growed up in this black version for the States. Unfortunately, the price is pretty well growed up as well, at $899. That money buys you a machine with a mere 1GB of RAM, 1.86GHz Core 2 Duo processor, and 256MB (shared) Intel GMA 3000 integrated graphics, while that cash put toward a full size desktop could easily double your money's worth. The computer should provide a decent PC competitor for the Mac mini and other teensy computers, and 802.11n is a nice touch, but it looks like Asus is going try a bit harder if it really wants to stand out in this space.
