Try googling for a few reviews on it. I'm sure one of those should mention the amount of storage space it has.

Obviously I don't deal with SFF PCs often. :P

But still...you have to supply your own hard drive? That seems awfully screwy to me..

They come with a case, mobo, psu and cpu hs/f (everything that is 'small' about it). You supply the normal sized periphs.

Hehe, yeah. The shuttles are Barebones systems unless they're part of a super deal.

They don't have a CPU, RAM, Hard drive, FLoppy, or CD drives.

In addition, with a system that performs as well as the SN41G2, you'll want to fork out the dough for a real nice video card. The built in graphics chip is crap. They shoudn't even call it a graphics chip, they should call it a 2d picture maker. A VooDoo will outperform it. A stopwatch will outperform it.

What are you talking about? The NF2 integreated video is a GF4 equiv. The best integreated video solution around.
