Dell's latest mini-desktop, the Inspiron Zino HD, has broken cover, but the company obviously has some blackmail-quality information about Engadget and Gizmodo as neither site are spilling the details of what's inside the low-profile box.  Known so far is that there's an optical drive, plenty of ports and interchangeable top covers with various patterns and finishes.

Acer Aspire One eSATA mod: Video

, Mar 11th 2009 Discuss [0]

The original Acer Aspire One has proved a willing and able subject for modders, and the most recent hack makes the 8.9-inch netbook all the more data-friendly with the addition of an eSATA port.  Piggy-backing over the Storage Expansion SD slot, modder tnkgrl used the netbook's SATA port to wire things up.
