Shuttle XS29F: Is VIA's Nano Processor Powerful Enough?

[Crashman]

It all depends on what you think typical is.

If you think VISTA is typical then lets face it... You are wrong.

It was a flop, still is a flop and quite frankly EVEN MICROSOFT ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT.

MOST businesses that aren't completely moronic have been waiting for Win7. So spare me the sanctimonious crap. Either Win7 or WinXP would have shown a MASSIVE difference in usability.

AND, you still didn't answer my earlier question. Was the shuttle supplied with VISTA. NO IT WASN'T. I bet it was linux. SO if you are trying to show up what shuttle expected which you obviously were just lying when you said you would HAVE to use the supplied OS.

Duff review. Duff reviewer.

LMAO! Shuttle supplied drivers for Windows, and did not supply any OS. That turns your final statement back on you.

Software compatibility tests would be good. Microsoft embedded visual c3 will not run on a VIA eden 600mhz motherboard, period. No releases of patches or anything, no explanations, just get an address exception when you try to run it. Its for this reason i dont use VIA CPU'd motherboards.
