Last year, I wrote a little about the Epia Mini-Itx motherboard. While the form factor is awesome, it was just to slow to use as an HTPC or a dedicated server. Via has just released the new Mini-Itx P4. Check out this bad boy:

Yes, you read that correct: P4 Hyperthreading in a 17 cm x 17 cm form factor. Throw in a small HD, and you’re good to good for a kick butt micro-server. Check out Mini-Itx News or EpiaCenter to see some wild projects (yes, that’s a toaster w/ a motherboard) being done with mini-itx motherboards.
