| If you're in the market for a solid secondary system for running basic tasks
| and surfing the Web, or if you're ready to take the Linux plunge, the K4800
| is one of the best deals around, especially if you already have a spare
| monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Shuttle KPC K45 Barebones System

,----[ Quote ]
| I spent the majority of my time using Linux Mint, because it's the
| least-hassling Linux distribution I've ever come across. It's Ubuntu with
| enough tweaks and uniquely Mint applications that it's its own animal.

Shuttle KPC K4500 Compact PC - PC World

,----[ Quote ]
| Alas, neither drive bay is externally accessible, so you can't add an
| internal optical drive. When the K4500 functions as a corporate PC or a kiosk
| machine, this is no problem; but if you want to install a copy of Windows
| (the KPC runs Linux), plan on doing it via an external drive. The machine
| lacks front-panel ports such as USB 2.0 and audio, though it has four USB 2.0
| ports plus legacy parallel and serial ports on the back.

| [...]
|
| The K4500 runs a green-hued version of the Gnome Linux desktop. Overall, the
| user experience is good, and the speed adequate. The PC ships with the
| OpenOffice productivity suite and such other Linux apps as the Firefox
| browser, the Pidgin instant messenger, and the F-Spot photo organizer.
