This review is from: Acer Veriton VN2620G-UC887L (DT.VFGAA.001) Nettop Computer - Intel Celeron 887 1.50GHz 2GB DDR3 320GB Linux - Gray, Black
Pros:
Very inexpensive. Reasonably small. Has USB 3.0 on one side and Gigabit LAN on the other, so it's great for serving up files on a network. The BIOS also has an option to restore previous power state upon power loss/restoration. Great to make sure that your file server comes back up after a power outage.
Cons:
Not strictly a con, but the graphics and processor are weak, so don't expect too much. Also, the pre-installed linux is HORRIBLE. Nuke it and install your favorite distro.
Overall Review:
I bought this with the express intent of making a small file server to share my external hard drives on my network. In a headless configuration it does exactly what I need with no fuss. Additionally, I hooked it up to my HD tv. It works, but I do perceive a tiny bit of latency or frame stutter at times.
