Shuttle XPC Systems has announced the X100, the latest addition to its small form factor tower lineup. Like the rest of Shuttle’s rigs, the X100 delivers respectable performance out of an impressively small box. The X100 features an Intel Core Duo processor in 1.6Ghz, 1.83Ghz or 2.0Ghz flavors. The machine also carries up to 2GB of DDR2 533 memory and a 250GB 7200RPM SATA hard drive. On the multimedia front, an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 chipset delivers graphics while high definition sound is provided by a Realtek ALC880 audio codec.

With dimensions measuring in at 8.26″(L) x 11.65″(W) x 2.16″(H), the X100 seems to be a legitimate PC competitor to the mac mini. The X100 is available now for prices starting at $999 before a $100 discount.
