Looking for a new Windows PC that won’t take up a lot of space on your desk? You might want to take a look at the iLife MP8. It’s small enough that you could easily make four or five a part of your juggling routine.
Notebook Italia notes [Google Translate link] that the MP8 is only about one fourth the size of some of Intel’s already small NUC systems. It measure two inches square and stands just 1.67 inches tall.
Unsurprisingly, this diminutive little cube isn’t built to handle heavy workloads. It’s powered by Intel’s Celeron N4100 quad-core Gemini Lake processor and has just 4GB of RAM and 64GB of integrated storage. Windows 10 (presumably Windows 10 Home) comes preinstalled.
There’s a microSD slot for expansion as well as 2 USB 3.0 ports and a USB-C port for your peripherals. Video gets piped out an HDMI port and you can hook up a headset or speakers to the MP8’s audio output.
Despite its small size, there’s still room inside the MP8’s case for a fan to keep the internals cool. iLife is showing off three different case options. The plastic one will be available in white or silver and has a vented top. The black and gray version has a mesh-covered vent just below its lid.
It’s a nice little package for a DIY set-top box, especially one that runs an operating system that will receive regular updates. That’s not always the case with Android-based devices like this.
You won’t have a hard time finding room to set up the MP8, but you may have to wait a while before you can actually order one. Liliputing’s Brad Linder reports that a launch date and price have yet to be announced… or even whether the system will be called the MP8 when it’s released.
