Samsung will release a new Chromebox designed to run
Google's web-based Chrome operating system.
The Samsung Chromebox is a desktop PC hub to which
users should attach their own monitor, keyboard and
mouse. Unlike to "rival" Mac Mini by Apple,
the Chromebox doesn't feature an optical drive but
still it remains virus-free as the operating system and
all of its applications are hosted online and most
importantly, it is cheaper.
The new device is powered by a 1.9GHz Sandy
Bridge-based Intel Celeron processor with integrated
graphics card, a 16GB SSD memory and 4GB of RAM. Ports
include six USB 2.0 ports plus Ethernet connectors for
two monitors plus a ne jack.
This new Samsung Chromebox is rumored to be priced at
$329.
