Title: Looking to build another AROS PC
Post by: amiman99 on August 07, 2013, 03:33:29 AM

I'm looking to build another AROS PC in a MiniITX form, or anything that has a small footprint like Mac Mini.
Is there any MiniITX motherboard that has a compatible LAN, SOUND, VIDEO with AROS?
Anyone built one like that?

Thanks

PhoenixConole on aros-exec.org has some for sale that pretty well meets that description.

Good luck, otherwise contact phoenixconsole.

Easy to build a desktop or tower so long as it has 3 pci or 2pci ports and one agp/pcie video slot so you can be sure to use compatible sound, video and network cards. (Soundblaster live emu10k, nvida supported video, and intel/100 network cards)

Mini pc's usually have less slots. (More problems) If I wanted a mini pc to run aros, I'd go to phoenixconsole or hmmm... an imica.

If you really want to do this, support those guys, because they can give you an out of the box machine for cheap and save you tons of headaches and heartaches...

Hmm... I was looking for something a little bit cheaper then $400. It is something I was looking for.
