Shuttle Carry bag

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...

Review of Shuttle XPC Bag PF9

Shuttle proves that form doesn't kill function.

Advantages: Form, function, auesthetic appeal. Beauty.
Disadvantages: Can't be expanded greatly, can get hot.

...It's a funny thing, beauty. It's even funnier to find beauty and technology intermingled - especially in the PC market. Sure, we've got the 'l33t' gamer's tarted up beige box, complete with dragon motifs and nauseating blue lights. But where's the style? When people think style and computers, they think Apple. I'd urge these people to think again. When I carefully teased my Shuttle XPC SB83G5M from it's box, unwrapped it and set it on my desk, I knew I'd found a winner. Like I said, it's a funny thing when you finally find something that isn't just good, but by far away outstanding. It's like when you get that new phone, or you've just set your hands on your new iPod. That transparent plastic film you insist keeping on the front for as long as possible - we've all done it. The first scratch I got on my Shuttle upset me, to have...

Review of Shuttle XPC SB83G5M

Shuttle XPCs are the way forward

Advantages: Compact, powerful, fairly quiet, stylish
Disadvantages: Quality Control needs improving

..., the unit is pre-fitted with a 6-in-1 card reader for transferring those digital photos/movies straight from the card, and you get 2 years on-site warranty -- amazing considering most electronics companies are loath to give you even a 1 year Return-to-Base type! My point is that this particular XPC (and most other mini-cube PCs) comes with so many useful and useable features as standard that there is virtually no need to have additional space for expanding. In the past, and even with some of the modern mainstream PCs, you'd normally have to go out and buy an "add-on this" and an "add-on that" to make it a more complete system. In fact, despite all the above mentioned gadgets, there is still a spare PCI slot to hand should you need it. Other potential upgrades, like making it wireless, can be achieved by either purchasing a Shuttle...

Review of Shuttle XPC P 8100G

The most stylish computer you'll ever see.

Advantages: Small, light, pretty
Disadvantages: You have to know about computers

..., and it takes up less space than a laptop! Because it's only dinky there isn't room for more than one hard drive, so you'll have to either get the biggest one you can afford, or if you find you need extra space, add on an external hard drive later. There's also only one CD-drive space, which means that if you want to copy CDs you'll have to have the space to copy everything to your hard drive first. If you want CD/DVD/R capabilities, you'll have to get one that does all three. Appearance This is probably the most stylish-looking computer you'll ever see. All of the Shuttle PCs are swish and you can get extra accessories for them from their website: http://eu.shuttle.com Stuff like a green or blue glowing plate to stick on the front. - How cool! Different colour cases, and even a Dusk and Dawn themed one. You can even...

Review of Shuttle XPC SK21G

Shuttle shines

Advantages: comfort, acceleration, spacious
Disadvantages: fuel consumption

...Having road tested 8 MPVs inside a week, I was fast despairing of finding that elusive vehicle that could offer me space for my growing family and performance. My Honda Shuttle test drive was to change all that. She came out of the blocks like a thoroughbred, immediately I was aware of the power of that mighty 2.3 litre engine. However, it was not just performance that I became instantly aware of, this car floated effortlessly over the terrain like an ocean liner. The all-round visibility and lofty driver position made me feel king of the road. However, there were yet more treat in store, because the acceleration both at the traffic lights and at cruising was sensational. It made me mindful of my old XR3i, as you could feel the power forcing you on. All Shuttles are automatic, and the automatic changing is just a dream. My only...

Review of Honda Shuttle

all aboard the shuttle

Advantages: small, impressive cooling system, no slowdown
Disadvantages: only 1 hard drive, no on board vga

...called www.overclock.co.uk and saw a great deal that suited his needs. His needs of recreation during off hours at work abroad, he gazed for ten minutes at his options and decided that the opportunity cost of no purchase was greater than the opportunity cost of purchase. The man was looking at a computer, but it was no ordinary computer, it was not a laptop either it was a Shuttle Small Form Factor barebone personal computer. Now I hear you cry "what is a shuttle?" well a shuttle is the name of a computer case that is 1 third of the size of a normal computer case. Computer cases are usually distinguised by type. The type of computer case you have is decided by the size of it and the size of it isn't usually in dimensions, it is often stated in terms like atx which is the average size of a computer case. The term atx is the size...

Review of Shuttle SN 45G

A toaster? A PC? What?

Advantages: Small, Chic
Disadvantages: Complicated, no support

...Now, I'll bet the first thing thought by you is, "what the hell is this?". Well, it's what's known as a "barebones" PC - in other words, you put your own stuff into it. "Why on Earth would you bother?" is likely to be the second question, and the answer is simple: It's cheaper, more stylish and definitely cooler. So?. A little bit about it then. Looks Well, the first thing that strikes you about this thing is its size. Seriously tiny. We're talking toaster-sized. You would not believe you can squeeze a fully fledged PC in this case. It's made out of black steel, with a plastic fascia (shame, that. A metal front'd have been much nicer). The front itself is characterised by various flaps hiding all the drives and ports, and the LED's are a rather fetching blue. It looks very, very stylish. The sides have "Shuttle" embossed...

Review of Shuttle XPC SN95G5 V2

Help cool your shutle computer

Advantages: helps to keep the computer cooler, looks great!
Disadvantages: might allow more dust in the computer

...I have had a Shuttle mini computer for a long time; perhaps three years just about and the biggest complaint I have had with it is that it has a serious airflow problem which resulted in two dead motherboards! Before I get ahead of myself, I will explain what a Shuttle computer is! What is a shuttle? There seems to be a general shift in what people expect from their computers. A lot of people want a small computer that does not take up masses of space on their desk but at the same time not wanting to compromise on the power and features that a larger computer can provide. It used to be that one needed a big computer because sound and graphics used to be on a separate card (circuit board) that plugged into the main circuit board (motherboard) and a small box would not be big enough to house all of this. However...

Review of Shuttle PF16 Black XPC Case Cover with Mesh Windows

carry case for a desktop PC!

Advantages: easier to carry PC and its assessories
Disadvantages: just wish someone else would carry it.....

...I have both a Shuttle SS51G and a Shuttle SS56Gv3. Both of these are mini computers that are compatible with this carrying case. This is the matching carrying bag for the Shuttle's mini barebone PCs. Why use this case? During my time at university, i attended many of the computing society's gaming events. This meant that I needed to get my computer to the university easily to join in the society events. I bought this bag as it was much more convenient to carry the PC than in the box that was supplied. Previously to attending university, i took the PC on a bus in the box it came in once, to work. It was awkward and difficult. It was not particularly heavy but I had it in the back of my mind that the plastic handle might come away from the cardboard box! The other thing was, that the box contained loads...

Review of Shuttle XPC Bag PF9

compact computer

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. This makes an ideal PC for the office or for space conscious people at home. The computer is not much bigger than a toaster containing all that average person will require from computing. (dimensions: 30 x 20 x 18.5 cm (LWH)) Please note: the monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc are not included. The whole point is this sort of computer is to give you freedom over what components you want in your computer rather having to select what manufacturers like HP and Dell think you might want from your PC. You still need to buy/obtain an operating system for the computer too and any other software you might require. I wrote a review...
