AOpen MiniPC Duo MP945-V Review
The good: Not much bigger than a Mac Mini; speedy Core Duo CPU; multiple video output options.
The bad: More expensive than the Mac Mini; BYOKMM (bring your own keyboard, mouse, and monitor); only two USB ports; no remote control; not much in the way of bundled software.
The bottom line: The clone that comes closest to the nearly flawless Mac Mini, AOpen's MiniPC Duo MP945-V would be easier to recommend if it hit the same price point as Apple's pocket-size box.
