Dont underestimate the SLA's role in accountability. For companies that have dynamic requirements and no down time can be afforded, make sure you have very tight SLAs. For example, OpSource provides a 100% SLA in the cloud and 100%SLA around production application environments. Now 100% is ideally perfect, it comes down to accountability, yo...

All-in-One-PC From Shuttle: X 5000TA With a Touch Screen and Energy-Efficient Intel Atom Dual-Core Processor
- X50 Model Series Only 3.6 cm Thin / Now Available in Europe

ELMSHORN, Germany, April 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Shuttle Inc., the market leader in the Mini-PC segment and manufacturer of Multi-Form-Factor solutions, announces the availability of a new product generation. The All-in-One-PC X 5000TA is a blend of energy-saving technologies and an innovative operating design. Once again, Shuttle's customary design and its high-quality finish are reflected in the new All-in-One-PC.

The only 3.6 cm thin All-in-One-PC comes supplied with an Intel Atom 330 processor (2x 1.6 GHz), 1 GB DDR2 memory, a 160 GB hard disk and Windows Vista Home Basic. The X 5000TA's high-gloss finish together with the visual chrome elements break new ground.

"Compact, power-saving All-in-One-PCs open up new and interesting application areas whether as a second PC for fast internet access, as part of a home automation system, for IP/videotelephony or for the next generation to obtain their first computer experiences," says Tom Seiffert, Head of Marketing & PR at Shuttle Computer Handels GmbH. "The possibilities for these devices are also becoming increasingly apparent in the business sector; for instance information can be displayed at the POS and finger-based or stylus inputs can be made."

Meeting the requirements of its All-in-One product category, the X 5000TA has the complete integration of a Mini-PC in a touch-sensitive 15.6 inch screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768. It also comes supplied with a 1.3 megapixel-webcam, sound-rich stereo loudspeakers, microphone and WLAN in the modern N-Standard.

Furthermore, the feature set includes Gigabit network, 5x USB 2.0, 6-channel audio, a card reader, Kensington-Lock, a VGA-out for external monitors and a control panel to adjust the loudspeakers, screen and the blue LED. An efficient Heatpipe Cooling System is present to cool the whole system effectively. A fanless, external 65 watt power supply provides the All-in-One-PC with power.

Folded upwards by 180 degrees, the chromed anti-slip pedestal can be used as a carrying handle. The practical VESA mounting surface on the back of the device enables it to be attached to monitor arms and wall mounts.

In the case of a warranty claim the purchaser of the Complete System can make use of the 24 month Pick-up-and-Return-Service and a Europe-wide free telephone hotline.

The Shuttle X 5000TA Complete System is available immediately from specialist retailers or via the Shuttle Systems Configurator. Shuttle's recommended retail price is EUR 499 (ex VAT). Alternatively, the X 5000TA can be ordered as "X50XA" system in similar configuration just without operating system and 24 months of Bring-in warranty service for EUR 419 (ex VAT). Click on www.shuttle.eu/systems to access the Shuttle Systems Configurator. Suppliers can be queried via the "Shuttle StoreLocator" at http://www.shuttle.eu/buy.

Models in other sizes, different feature sets and with different operating systems are already under development.
