The new item that Stealth Computer has announced may not be the $25 Raspberry Pi, but it definitely ranks among the smallest computers out there.
Then again, the company has a history of putting together undersized systems that still have everything they need, so we aren't as surprised as we might otherwise have been.
LPC-680 LittlePC is the name of the company's latest invention. The size is of 6.5 x 6 x 2 inches (165 x 152 x 50 mm).
A Sandy Bridge CPU lies at the heart, which means that prospective buyers will get to select between a Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 unit.
Regardless of the choice, the memory backing it can go as high as 8 GB and the 2.5-inch mobile HDD can provide up to 750 GB of storage space.
Furthermore, a solid state drive can be chosen instead of the HDD, in case the small computer has to be used in situations where shock, vibration and temperature resistance are more important.
Moving on, Stealth Computer tossed in a slim DVD/CR-RW optical drive (optional Blu-ray) and I/o panel with two USB 3.0, two USB 2.0, one DVI-I, one DisplayPort, one Gigabit LAN, Wi-Fi 802.11n, 1-RS232 Serial and Line In/Out Audio ports.
"The Stealth Model: LPC-680 is the most powerful and advanced small form PC we have offered to date. Our full featured machine utilizes the new second generation Sandy Bridge Intel Core i7/i5/i3 mobile processor family and we believe it competes for the most processing power per square inch of any personal computer available today. It is also our first small PC with USB 3.0 connectivity," stated Ed Boutilier CEO of Stealth.com Inc.
Stealth Computer's LPC-680 LittlePC receives power from the included 20VDC power adapter or any 12 to 20VDC power source, like those used in cars and such.
Shipments should already be underway, for $1,495.00, or 1,132.74 Euro. Common consumers probably won't jump at it because of this, but customers from the Industrial, Mining and Telecommunications, Military, Public Safety, Utility, Transportation, Commercial and Scientific Research markets probably will.
