As per title, looking to get one of these for my online business, as a full on pc seems pointless!
Only other consideration was a HP Proliant but as the offer is over thats not really an option!
TIA :thumbup:

might be worth waiting until next month to see if HP re-start the cashback on the microservers.

I read somewhere they are bringing out a new model, and thought this offer would not be available in the near future?
The only reason i would go the micro server route is because it could be useful for storage/backup.

Yep the N54L but not yet readily available on the UK market, although some unknown sellers appear to have some, I expect at some point the discounts will come back but on the newer more expensive model, I don't see it coming back on the end of line model to be honest. Waiting to see what happens on the new model as would like to get one, but expect it won't come in at the bargain price of £130 :-(

I have an acer revo nettop for bedroom media, and one of the handy things is if you have a VESA mount you can attach to the back of your screen or TV. But I'm sure there are better value systems available

Bring it with you and we can do a swap :heehaw:
How do you find it? im also looking at the lenovo models, but trying to decide if i will pay the extra to have a dvdrw drive, or even a blu!

Haha! It's fine for what I use it for, but I only use the web for streaming and movies over the network, they'll also handle HD with no issue, also has in built wifi if you need it. I'd imaging it would start to struggle with more demanding tasks and even intensive flas stuff, although mines an original one with an older processor, I expect the newer black ones are more powerful though

Thanks for the info, to be fair i am just needing a compact office pc for basic stuff, the most demanding thing it will likely do is edit a html template  :lol:
