Many desktop PCs are performance hungry, large and loud. But users, who only use their computer for surfing the web and standard office tasks, do not need such extravagant performance. Transtec is introducing a mini PC with the Senyo 610, that is modest in every aspect: small, quiet, and power saving. The PC’s basic endowment really only satisfies simple needs, but also costs less than £400. Anyone who wants to receive the maximum performance from the little box, will have to pay substantially more.
The Senyo 610 comes with the Intel Celeron 530 CPU in its most modest edition. One gigabyte of RAM, a 80 gigabyte hard drive, DVD burner, onboard graphics, card reader, Bluetooth, and gigabit LAN characterise the main specifications for around £380. A large amount of features can be optionally added: RAM up to 4 GBs, larger hard drives, an operating system, and WLAN can all be ordered extra.
The model with the Intel Core 2 Duo offers a more advanced outfitting. Not only the processor is faster here, but the WLAN comes included too. For this model one can expect to pay around £560. Both PCs weigh in at only 1.3 kilograms, use no more than 35 Watts and can be connected to displays via DVI or S-Video. They also come with two year guarantees.
