Mini-ITX Project Part II

October 24th 2005 | General

For some time now I have wanted to add a computer to my living room. There are already a number of other computers in my house but this one was going to be different. Since it was not intended for work and would be more for convenience than functionality, I felt I could get creative with its design and really tailor it to suit my needs. As opposed to building another general purpose, midtower computer this was the perfect opportunity to build something much smaller and, hopefully, much quieter.

With the system rebuilt and the new OS chosen, Part II of the Mini-ITX saga was finished. With the changes done here the Mini-ITX system was convertered from a super light computer which was was basically just a gateway to the internet, to something a bit more versatile.

As for the Hoojum Cubit 3 enclosure, I am still very impressed with it. It looks great and works very well, though I am not at all exciting about the thought of opening it up again and neatly putting the cables back in place. Luckily the Mini-ITX project computer is working very well and I don’t forsee that happening until its time for more changes.
