Bill, <The easy-PC is the same type of tech that all the screwdriver shops have been doing for ages. A standard case, power supply etc. Easy to upgrade the mobo etc. Will the AMD product be the same? or will they change the shape of the mobo for each CPU making an upgrade impossible...like Dell does?> To me, the beauty of easy-PC to me is not in the hardware but in the user-friendlyness. I don't think many people will open the box so I wouldn't even mind a sealed box with everything soldered. Easy-PC is about legacy-free and consumer friendlyness to me. Legacy-free means consumer probably get systems with fewer crashes, can easily add and remove peripherals with fewer hassles, need to do low-maintainance, etc. The instant-on is also a long-overdue and shows this industry is finally focussing on consumers instead of techies.
