*/Where previous SFFs have been a hard sell for Shuttle, the X27-D hits

the mark very well with a fantastic looking case, a better set of

features and a more flexible build than the rest of the nettop

competition. The well built power unit makes the X27-D exceptionally

efficient and it's super quiet too, although that depends entirely on

what hard drive is used. It would be an all win situation, except for

the fact the second Atom core doesn't add that much at all.

 

The Shuttle X27-D is a really great product in its own right, but we

wouldn't buy it because it sits in an awkward medium: £30-50 is a

notable extra jump over the EeeBox or (the non-D) Shuttle X27, yet the

AMD Sempron build isn't that much more of an upsell again for //a lot

more performance./

*Cheers guys!
