Review: Point of View Mobii Sydney - Mini PC with Nvidia ION technology

March 9, 2011 - PRLog -- Point of View Mobii Sydney is a low-cost PC in a compact format based on Intel Atom processor and Nvidia's ION -circuits. The computer is launched as an alternative to a HTPC computer. But hold on what it promises? http://laptopsbattery.co.uk/sony-vgp-bps2c.htm

The first impression I get when I unpack the box to this computer, the computer is very pretty. A shiny black compact ytte, well-laminated, makes me almost not want to touch the computer because I'm afraid to smudge it with my fingerprints. The only thing that with your computer when you buy it is a letter containing drivers for Windows Vista / XP and a power cord. No operating system is not installed on the machine. There you will either buy into or arrange any other way myself. http://laptopsbattery.co.uk/toshiba-pa3534u-1brs.htm

The heart of the machine is its Intel Celeron 330 1.6 Ghz processor. It is thus not a performance computer, it is about, because this type of processor would otherwise primarily used in ultra-portable computers. 2GB of DDR2 memory at 533 MHz and an Nvidia ION GPU bodes However, for the computer to be able to deliver more power than its ultraportable competitors do. http://www.battery-mag.us/dell-latitude-d430.htm

The computer is slightly larger than a HTPC but is still small enough to fit in the TV bench. There are both VGA, DVI and HDMI output which allows connectivity to monitors and TVs are many. Would the 320 GB -sized hard drive is not enough, the computer is also equipped with not less than 10 USB ports, eight on the back and two on the front, where you can easily plug in external devices.

After you install Windows 7 on the computer, I was of course curious as to what it would be able to perform. Since I have a portable computer based on the same processor, I was curious to see if the computer really - as promised - would be able to play HD movies in full screen. Because the computer does not have a blu-ray player, I decided to test this by filling up two home movies in mkv format. The first movie in 720p resolution, the second in 1080p resolution .

The playback of movies in 720p resolution went quite smoothly. Through the computer's optical audio output, it was not an issue that after installing the drivers - which, however, I had downloaded from the manufacturer's website because the disc only contained XP / Vista versions of drivers - play surround sound from the movie.

Unfortunately the computer did not at all to play mkv movies in 1080p resolution.Despite idoget trickery with the settings to try to churn out better performance, I managed to not get movies to float. As an alternative to a HTPC connected to your TV, this notebook is not a have if you seek a full HD resolution. If your TV does not support full HD computer is sufficient, however, and the rest of you get a lot of computer for the money. Need a cheap and compact second computer at home is Point of View Mobii Sydney a good option.
