Does anyone have experience with the Zotac ZBox's? http://www.zotacusa.com/products/mini-pcs

I'm wondering what type of performance they have. My current rig is a p4 2gb p4 w/ HT running ubuntu 10.10. I do consider myself a power user and generally like speed, but i'm finding myself doing less power hungry apps these days. At most i might run a single XP VM via virtualbox and run something like Revenge of the Titans, MineCraft, or the latest build of Supertuxkart. http://www.puppygames.net/revenge-of-the-titans/

Does anyone know if a ZBox could handle these apps?

Thank you.

Considering the age of your current machine, the ZBox shouldn't have too much of an issue handing the demands of your applications provided you get a dual-core Atom. Just be aware, the Atom CPUs won't deliver the amount of power as your current P4 will to applications that only support a single CPU Core.
