Transmeta´s IBASE MB860 a tiny, silent, Windows Media Center platform

This motherboard powered by the Efficeon processor and using the mini-itx form-factor could be a turning point in creating small, energy efficient and silent Windows Media Center PCs. The motherboard has most the connection that a regular user would need. It uses an integrated graphics chipset that is capable of displaying Media Center. I’m actually pretty surprised that the Efficeon is capable of running Windows MCE without a hitch, because I’ve seen it crawling on a 1.3Ghz AMD Athlon.
