What takes up the most space inside a Personal Computer? The memory? The disk drives? The CPU? Actually, it's none of these. The thing traditional PCs are most full of is empty space. Continuing innovation means PC components have become a lot smaller during the past decade, but the big metal cases that contain them have evolved slowly, if at all. But during the last few years, several companies in Taiwan have begun to change this. They've done away with the empty space, and shrunk the PC down to a tiny, stylish cube one quarter the size. The result: a PC that actually looks attractive, and is at home in any living room. Alongside the traditional PC it looks like a Porsche next to a dumper truck.
