MINIX launches the Z150-0dB

Last year, MINIX took the fanless community by storm with a carefully designed, robust, affordable, and widely-available N100-powered mini PC. The Z100-0db is brillant. We own one, and it's a surprisingly stable and snappy little machine. The new Z150-0db features the same connectivity and heat sink case as its predecessor, but is now powered by the Intel N150 (Twin Lake) processor, for a modest yet appreciable performance gain. Update: The 16GB / 512GB version is available for $279.90.
