Tango Cocktail Mini PC VIIV, prettier than the Mini?
Category: Pc - Tags:
It’s a challenge to make a compact and powerful PC that is prettier than the Mac Mini, but just look at what the Korean company SungJu International Co Ltd did with this Tango Cocktail CK-5201! The specs are nice with an Intel Duo Core T2300 at 1.66GHz, an Intel® 945GT with Embedded 3D engine Video Chipset, DVI and S-Video out, 1GB of DDR2-533MHz RAM, Wireless a/b/g, a 80GB SATA HDD, a DL and RAM DVD burner, Bluetooth, 3 USB 2.0 ports, FireWire, a TV port and Windows Media Center Edition. This device rules! Granted, the graphics card is a bit “light”, but this PC might very soon replace my Mini at home!

I really doubt that the maker is British… No offence for British Citizen, but this look like a TW, CH or KR product… anyway I may be wrong
They are based in Essex
:
or at least this is what their address is saying.
In UK the gadget is sold for 799 punds (VAT included) and it is called mDMS P60
European companies don’t tend to buy from foreign companies and sell under their their own brands? I know Asian technology is more advanced in these areas.
This is really horible.
The build quality is very ordinary, which can be decerned from looking at the low rez photos on your site.
Just look at the third photo with the start up button pictured. The body is not flush! Did you drop it before taking the photo, or does it really come like that? Whats with the mishmash of materials and colours?
And whats with the shape? Whats wrong with ‘form follows function’? YUK YUK YUK.
About time others did what apples does, which is tells the engineers to get it as small as possible, and then gives the dimentions and specs to a real designer to build the case.
