Shuttle SD11G5 Pentium M Barebone Review

November 7th 2005 | Hardware

A couple of weeks ago, Shuttle announced the XPC SD11G5 - their first XPC supporting Intel’s Pentium M and i915GM chipset. It is also the first Shuttle XPC since the Zen to use an external power supply unit. It includes PCMCIA slot for laptop wireless cards, Creative 7.1 channel sound, fabulous ‘G5′ styling and tons of outputs. Is this the next LAN rig, the next elegant and silent desktop platform, or is it the Mac Mini killer?

…In all honesty, we will be exceptionally sad to have to return this sample. Rarely have we been more impressed with everything a barebones system has to offer and it sets the bar highly for Shuttle’s future XPC products. I’d recommend this system to anyone considering and SFF PC, providing you can get your hands on it and a Pentium M CPU for a reasonable price.
