The Enano E2 is a tiny, silent PC with a footprint, and a carbon footprint, that makes most standard-size PCs look like S.U.V.’s.
Enano says that thanks to their small size and low-power processors, its 6.8-by-8.8-inch computers offer power savings of up to 70 percent when compared with full-size PCs. Enano also promotes the E2’s small size as offering improved efficiency over larger, bulkier PCs and cases. An optional mounting bracket allows the E2 to hang from a flat-screen monitor, removing it from the desktop entirely.
The E2 has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and up to three gigabytes of memory. There are four U.S.B. ports, an Ethernet port, an optional TV tuner and a video-out port for connecting the device to a television. In most configurations the computer includes a DVD reader and burner and up to 300 gigabytes of hard drive space.
Prices for the E2 line, available now at RCS Computer Experience and NewEgg.com, range from $1,825 for the EX7400U with a 2.16-gigahertz processor to $1,245 for the 1.67-gigahertz EX5500.
What to do with your bulky old PC? Perhaps recycle the innards and make the case into a nice planter.
