Small, light and open source. Enclosed in these three words are the heart and soul of Abaco, the system assembled from a small company Milan SRL Ahab, who at the same time on the market with the release of the new Intel processor designed for mobility - Atom - has released a compact desktop based on this CPU, equipped with Linux OS (Ubuntu), designed to offer great performance at a small cost.
students, such as those approaching the computer for the first time, become familiar with a system free instead of an owner: "What better situation - wonder Ahab - to prove once and for all that Linux is not that difficult to use as it keeps saying anywhere? If a guy, or better yet a maybe even young adult, is able to successfully use Ubuntu for all its needs, and after him there comes another, then another, then another ... Would you say that something might finally start to move really, would mean that the Linux we can get serious and self-respect not only the scope of the geeks and the occasional enlightened barricadiero. "Among the other gifts of small PCs, as well as reducing the costs ( costs € 299 - keyboard, mouse and monitor not included) is also low: "Abaco consumes a minimum of 30W at a maximum of 40W. Compared to the solution with Celeron 1.33 (the one used previously), consumption decreased slightly (about 5W average), with much better performance. "Estimate that the average consumption of 33.5 watts computer, the average savings compared to a desktop - that settles around 150W - could be reduced to one fifth of the impact on the PC bill. And there are other issues on which Abaco is scoring more points in its favor: "It's as quiet as a laptop, and you certainly can not say the same for most of the solutions available on the market."
visiting the site you can change or add other components: bring the ram to 2 gb, take the keyboard and mouse, add the wirless usb, speakers, bluetooth, webcam for a total maximum of € 413 .
