We like:
Dual-core Atom 330 CPU; cute design
We don't like:
Noisy; rubbish graphics
CNET UK judgement:
The x27D is, at the time of writing, the fastest nettop-style machine we've ever tested. Its dual-core Atom 330 CPU makes it a far more robust solution than PCs such as the Eee Box. It's a little too noisy for our liking, but it's affordable, attractive and definitely worthy of consideration
