I can't believe we will have to wait until 2014 to play GTA V on PC.

Searched around a little after I posted, now I no longer have the page I saw the pic on :'( It was about nvidia and intel fighting yet again. i am going to look some more now. It had a pic of it opened too. I bet it will use flash for storage and SSd for a little OS on it.

It's called Nvidia ION!

spec sheet:

I've said this about thin clients in the past, they used to run Windows CE (that palmtop OS) and basically act as a minimal slave to a terminal server session.... and I'll say it again..

IF ANYONE PUTS THAT SHIT ON MY DESK I'LL PUNCH THEM. :evilgrin:

I guess, what I am getting at, is, though cool minimal technology - would you prefer a shiny designed-for-gamer powerbox.. or an intel atom based device designed with cost and size in mind as paramount?

As much as I'm all for portability - speed comes first.
