MiniPC Returns as FlipStart

Like raccoons who enjoy your garbage, the miniature PCs keep coming back to annoy and tantalize. The latest with news is the FlipStart from Vulcan (pictured).

The FlipStart, formerly called the MiniPC, runs Windows XP and has hardware specs similar to many full-sized laptops (such as 1024x600 display, 30 GB HDD, and 802.11g wireless). However, it's only 6" x 4" x 1" thick and weighs just 1 pound.

While the Flipstart isn't currently available, the website suggests that pricing and availability details will be offered later this year. Haven't we heard that before?

Ok, that's a pretty cool little computer :)

We have a MiniPC (cube) at work. I'd say it measures about 6 inches per side, but doesn't include a monitor.

1024x600 might be a bit rough to read on that little bugger!
