IBM ThinkCenter S50

Reading time 1 minute

It’s far from being the world’s smallest desktop PC, but I do think it’s interesting to see what IBM cooks up when it designs a PC for the Japanese market. Here it is (again) – the ThinkCentre S50, which despite being powered by only four tennis balls, manages to eke out speeds mysteriously close to a 3.2GHz Pentium 4.

And that’s it, really, just a tiny PC with not much in the way of an upgrade path (single PCI slot, and you’ll be glad to have it, you ungrateful wretches), all crammed into a box with a footprint smaller than an A4-sized notebook (which I presume is larger than an A4-sized piece of paper, but then again, I’m American, and we use God’s Own Imperial Paper Sizes).

Unless they were saying that it’s smaller than an Audi A4. I’d definitely buy that.
