Dell has just presented the desktop minicomputer Studio Hybrid. It is already available in Spain (and probably in other countries, but at the moment not in the US, UK or Australia).
It is a small (or VERY small, look at the size of the CD in the picture) form factor desktop computer with an appealing design. It has a good assortment of connections for a computer of this size (5 USB, FireWire, Gigabit Ethernet, DVI, HDMI, S/PDIF, card reader, line-in, speakers-out and headphone-out) but it’s not very powerful (up to Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 at 2,1 GHz, 4 GB RAM and 320 GB hard disk drive; graphics card is an Intel GMA 3100 that can’t be upgraded). Anyway, its performance should be enough for the most common needs and can be configured with BD drive.
Dell Studio Hybrid costs from 449 € with the base configuration (Celeron processor, 1 GB RAM and 160 GB hard disk), pero under Windows Vista I recommend the first preconfigured option (Pentium Dual Core with 2 GB RAM), costing 549 €.
Watch Dell‘s site for your country, It’s likely to be available later today or tomorrow.
Update: it’s already available at dell.com, and PC Magazine has already published a review.
