Street price should be around RM1300 but its not out yet and so price is not confirm. If anyone interested in getting one, just PM me but my price I have to add rm50 for my time & trouble. Just PM me to discuss since this is not a WTS thread. Warranty 1 Year. Send back to me if need to claim warranty.

Pictures in a minute - uploading now

dvd-rom consider good for me. i'm not playing the blu-ray disk because it's still expensive for me. i prefer more on hd-rip playback. post some review once you have testing the mkv 1080i/1080p playback on the system. need to know if the playback is ultra smooth or not.

darn! no OS in the system. I will have to burn a Windows 7 later and load that. I got the white unit. At first I thought its plastic but its made of metal the whole casing.

There is a chance for dual monitor. Maybe its possible thru the HDMI and VGA. They also shipped me a HDMI to DVI converter. I will try plugging in a VGA and DVI monitor see if it display on both.

Pictures still uploading - darn flickr

Finally some pictures uploaded

good news! dual monitor is possible. one hookup to VGA, the other monitor using DVI via the HDMI

Hmm...looks nice. Waiting for your review on performance (720P/1080P mkv playback and normal office tasks)

cool! Dual screen mode is possible.

most probably will get this unit

now have t osave some cash

bro idoblu where u buy it?? how much??? I needed that machine...

order from overseas - rm1350

funny the pc came without the nvidia ion drivers loaded. i had to load in the drivers from the CD-ROM (duh! stupid me - of course the drivers not loaded since it doesnt comes with OS loaded)
another thing is no reset button. that means you need to use the on/off switch. it boots quite fast. i installed Windows 7RC.

do i have an option, like buy the set without hard disk and memory? I found one in ebay which it didn't come with hard disk and ram but comes with dvdrw drive, and sell at cheaper price. I'm planning to buy one, but hard disk and ram i buy locally.

nope i dont think so because i ask for mine to come with 4GB of RAM and they cant do it. Their production line is strictly adhering to the config as shown in page 1. can show links to that ebay offer?

btw can you recommend a player for 1080 MKV files? I tried using Media Player Classic and not really getting the results. Maybe its because I was playing it off an SD card as well. I am going to try with an external HDD later on

One weird thing - it wont boot with a thumbdrive in its USB slot. I mean it can boot from a thumbdrive but if you leave a thumbdrive in the USB slot (not for booting purposes), it wont boot up. I've set my boot device to only HDD and ODD.

Here's the link http://cgi.ebay.com/AsRock-ION-330-Mini-De...93%3A1|294%3A50

you try searching if above link doesn't work.

i recommends mpc homecinema

Click "without installer" link, select "I agree" and click continue

Once done, try setting up the player based on the topic http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/797530 so the onboard graphics do the encoding job.

I am using MPC HC - ok at least now i set it to EVR, the aspect ratio is correct but Im still not happy. Maybe its because of my slow LCD monitor. I will try it with my plasma TV later on. I dont know anything about all these video stuff so if there is a setting I should set it at let me know. For me this is too much of a hassle, I just use my WDTV to play all my movies

Added on July 17, 2009, 10:00 amtried with klite codec - much better

Klite Codec much better? Can you try CoreAVC? Why you want to try the software decoding, why don't you try dxva?

here is a good review - http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?opti...=1&limitstart=1

what is the difference vs aspire revo? aside from core duo and internal disc?

acer revo is running on atom N230 not N330. sadly... but acer includes white color wireless mouse and keyboard.

is there any other brand that is available domestically and is running on ddr3?

Some of the reviews says its silent but it is not. I can hear a slight humming sound from the fan. Its not noisy but I can still hear it in a quiet room. Maybe because my room is hot and the fan is at full speed
