The "Jack PC" is a low to medium power PC. It runs Internet Explorer 6.0 to connect to Web-driven applications, and runs an "up to 500MHz" AMD RISC processor, which the company says is equivalent to a 1.2GHz x86. It can come with up to 64MB of flash memory and 128MB RAM. Analogue or digital monitors are supported, and the system can include support for dual-screen and 16:9 screens. It has four USB 2.0-compatible ports, 16-bit audio in/out and support for 24-bit (true colour), 1280x1024 graphics. The Jack PC will also support wireless connectivity. The unit can be powered via PoE IEEE 802.3 af port and consumes only 5 watts of power keeping both the cost (to run) and heat of the unit down.

Priced at (about) $392, you could really buy an entire PC for that. However, if small footprints and minimal power consumption is something you are after, this might be perfect for you. The Jack PC will be getting its official launch next month when it is being shown at the IT Works show which will run on the 14th and 15th of June in Newcastle.
