At Computex Taipei 2005 AOpen, a maker of computer components, is showing off its new PC barebone which design looks very similar to Apple’s Mac mini computer unveiled earlier this year. The new product is designed primarily for those looking for a small personal computer and is built around Intel Centrino hardware.

AOpen’s new XC Cube is even a little smaller than Apple Mac mini computer and looks just like Apple’s smallest offering, even thoug the design of the PC barebone still has some minor differences, according to Anna Filatova, X-bit labs Editor in Chief, who reports from Computex Taipei 2005. One of the differences is a switch button located on the front panel of AOpen’s “cube”, while Apple Mac mini has it on the back side. The box is based on Intel 915GM chipset with integrated DirectX 9.0-supporting graphics core and is designed for Intel Pentium M processors. The barebone features audio, Ethernet, FireWire and USB 2.0 ports.
