Says "Neo-ITX is form factor compatible with Mini-ITX and MicroATX" 
which means one could use this as a drop in for standard cases. I also 
see potential for Android based Point of Sale Systems.

The OLPC XO proved you really could ride Mores Law in the other 
direction. Raspberry Pi gave it mass appeal. Now the market is in it's 
usual copy-cat mode.


Did anyone else notice the eeprom chip with a silkscreen label of BIOS?
I wonder what they could be doing with that considering it's an ARM 
chip. Would make it easier to examine and replace though.
