The HTPC BBBPS the Granullion

November 30, 2009

A few weeks ago that we are testing a new store in the HTPC configuration. And now after having twisted a bit, as we are able to teach it.

It is a HTPC that satisfies the rule of the three Bs (Bueno, Bonito, Barato) and also complies with the PS (Small and Silent)

It is a HTPC for almost anyone who wants a device of this type let it go. You can even offer in addition to a more powerful computer, to share content in multiple rooms.

Long ago he was looking for something that meets these characteristics:

– Affordable Price

– Power to move HD video Full

– Small

– Not to make any noise

– With expandability

– Easy to use

And finally I think we’ve got a HTPC that meets the requirements.

– Size: It measures only 22cm wide, 7 tall and 31 deep. Here’s a picture of the box. Sober design, all in black

On the front is the gap for the reader / DVD burner or Blu-Ray, analog audio outputs and two USBs. Then there’s the power button is also connected equipment if lights. And above is the reset button.

– Noise: the power supply is external and is no fan. The system also has no fan inside, everything is passive. As we can see in the picture below. The heatsink of the chipset and processor set covers almost the entire plate.

– The motherboard is an nVidia chipset Zotac Ion. We can choose between the system with single-core Atom N230 or N330 model with dual core. Thanks to Ion, we have enough graphics power to play Full HD video at full quality. And as we see in the picture below, has links to almost everything.

There are six USB, one HDMI, one DVI, Dsub VGA output, two digital audio outputs, one optical and one coax, RJ45 for LAN connection, an eSATA connection and analog audio outputs. And all at a reduced size.

– Expandable: we can choose the ram from 1 gig, up to four gigabytes. The hard disk drive enters our 2.5 “or a 3.5″ to 2 teras. The rewritable DVD or Blu-Ray reader can be installed or not. The wireless network can also choose to mount or not. In the same way is an optional USB TV tuner or remote control. So we can get the system only with what we need.

– The operating system is also selectable. With Windows 7 or any version of Linux. With Linux and MythTV or XBMC performance is excellent, I would say better than Windows.

So now we can offer a HTPC which is like a big book. With a price like that of a midrange MediaPlayer, but with the option of having a real PC. In this way we surf the Internet, watch YouTube videos, use instant messaging, play games, use it as a download center … what comes to mind.

If someone is encouraged, enter the store and choose the components that you like. Because here the HTPC is mounted to the measure. And so that nobody is left behind, I leave you a discount code:

granullion_3011

. And if you do order today, with the XBMC Linux you installed it at no cost. caja1caja1 For example, a simple setup could have:

– Box

– Motherboard with a Atom N230

– Two gigabytes of RAM DDR2

– 500 gigs HDD Sata 3 1 / 2

– Remote control

– Linux with MythTV and XBC

The price of this set would be 270 Euros already mounted.

Read The old guard of John Scalzi

November 29, 2009

A few weeks ago that referred to had finished reading “Troops space” of Heinlein. I got an email from a dear reader of the blog, where I spoke of the “old guard” a work which had a plot that somehow resembled the work of Heinlein, but modernized.

So I’m curious, I read the work of John Scalzi. The story line may be somewhat similar to Heinlein, but with new elements and curious. The novel reads well. Part of a curious idea. To assemble the space army, rather than recruit and train young people are looking for volunteers over 75 years. Once you have entered the army, they are rejuvenated and thus takes his training and experience, with the force of a body of someone younger. From that idea, it traces the story of a 75-year old man who volunteered. We attended his rejuvenation, he passed through the camp of instruction, knowledge of their weapons, their first battle, killed his first friends … and so on until the final battle which saved the human race. imageimage Well written, better than any of the modern science fiction I’ve read. We read in one sitting. There are several references to classical works and it shows significantly influenced by Heinlein.

The author has followed the plot and has two more novels. Right now I’m with the second, I almost like it better than the first. And of course again is giving me ideas to implement these texts of science fiction to someone from a company learns something about managing people, but that’s for another entry.

A new version of the store

November 28, 2009

Already have the new version presentable shop Changlonet. If this summer you had the big tent (with more than 20,000) have now revamped store customized systems.

And I’ve tried is that they are more customizable than before. Almost everything we sell are custom systems. In fact our best sales tool is recommended. What I have tried to do with the new store is that you choose a base system and you can add and remove components until the system is the client’s taste.

I missing some settings still be discharged and I want to incorporate a section of portable elect. But I’d rather start now than once, because otherwise it would never end not with the design.

As always if someone sees a problem with the display of the tent (in Explorer 6 looks bad, but I give up for lost) that let me know.

So you are all invited just to give you around our new small store.
