Advantages: small and lightweight and gives freedom over components
Disadvantages: gets a little hot though better than previous models

...The Shuttle SS56Gv3 is a tiny computer that packs a huge punch. It can work with all of what most people will need in their computers: floppy drive, DVD writer, quick hard drive, a fast processor and plenty of RAM.

Advantages: makes it easy to transport the computer, slash proof
Disadvantages: not stain proof

...This bag is designed for the mini computers made by Shuttle. Size: The bag is 36cm long, 23 cm wide and 19.5 cm high. Compatibility: It is just the right size to fit the following models of Shuttle's tiny computers: SV24, SV25, SS50C, SS51G, SV51F, SB51G, SS40G, SS40F, SK41G, SN41G2 iuse it with my Shuttle SS51G and its perfect as it's made this with and other models in mind. Appearance: The carry case is made out of a shiny plastic material that is slash proof. This is great if you have to go from the car to the office or whether in the rain as you can ensure the computer wont get wet. I would say its not water proof so dont go walking around with it in the rain :) The bag is silver and black and features the Shuttle logo on the front flap. Under this is where a zip is to ensure the bag is done up securely. The front flap has a tie... Read review
