Shuttle D10: A lot of computer in a little space

We recently learned that Japan's landfills are full of precious metals that are locked up in discarded electronics, from cell phones to computers. So anytime something comes out of Japan that uses less material, it's a step in the right direction.

That's why the Shuttle D10 deserves a shout-out. Mini laptops are common but there's never been a good reason that made sense to me why desktops can't be minaturized. The Shuttle D10 uses a built-in 7-inch LCD touch screen that makes a keyboard, mouse and monitor unnecessary.

The system uses Intel Core 2 Duo,Core 2 Duo E4000 series, Dual-Core E2000 series, Celeron 400 series support FSB 800/1066/1333 (65W only) MHz support. The screen resolution at 800 x 480 resolution may require a monitor to be hooked up if it's your only computer, but it makes sense as a PC for a car or where space is a problem. At under $500, it's also a good price and will be released in Japan at the end of this week.
