Acrosser is a manufacturer that has appeared in the news at a few occasions and that is mainly because of its innovative and unique solutions. Its latest board is a so called SBC (Single Board Computer) with support for Intel’s Pentium M processors. The board also complies to the hole standard of the miniITX formfactor, which makes it a really attractive board for those who want performance in a small package. The board is built around Intel’s 915GM chipset, which means that there is an integrated graphics circuit. The board sports two DIMM ports with support for up to 2GB RAM, one PATA port, 2 SATA ports and one CompactFlash II connector for permanent storage.
Those who can have the possibility of using the board’s 72-pin golden finger or 56-pin JAMMA interface, but we assume that it is the minimal format that appeals.
