British company Jade Integration will release a mini-computer, Jack PC, which is the size of a pre-embedded wall outlet. Obviously this is not a computer that can be used to play games or process documents, but a PC with low power, small size and running Windows CE. The mini computer also comes pre-loaded with Internet Explorer 6.0 browser for users to access the Internet. Jack PC supports the network and can connect to Citrix ICA or Microsoft RDP terminal servers. This makes Jack PC's function no longer limited to the Internet, but also a good KIOSK or thin client, and VIA also relies on its EPIA mini ITX and nano ITX motherboard for the same market

The thin client and KIOSK system consume very little power because everything is done remotely on the server. The Jack PC's full system power consumption is as low as 5W, compared to 40-50W for the mini ITX system. Of course, one of the reasons for lower power is less powerful hardware. The Jack PC uses a low-power AMD RISC CPU. Jade Integration did not mention the AMD processor, but it is probably the AMD Alchemy Au1200. The CPU is available in several frequency levels and is available in 333 MHz, 400 MHz and 500 MHz models.
As for storage and system memory, the Jack PC is equipped with 64MB of flash memory for storing OS and programs, as well as 128MB of DDR system memory. The Jack PC will be available in three models: EFI 6700, 6800 and 6900. The EFI 6700 and 6800 models are likely to use 333 MHz and 400 MHz CPUs respectively and the EFI 6900 will likely use 500 MHz CPUs. All Jack PCs support analog display, audio output, microphone input, and 4 USB ports. The video output is limited to 1280x1024, 24-bit color, and this specification is just right for touch screen or regular LCD.
Jack PC EFI 6700, EFI 6800 and EFI 6900 are priced at £209, £279 and £349, respectively.
