More and more products are appearing on the market with Ubuntu, a good sign that Canonical's operating system is succeeding beyond geek people. One of these new products it's called MeLe PCG02U, a stick-pc that offers a totally different experience from Ubuntu.
The stickpc in question comes equipped with a 1,83 Ghz Intel BayTrail processor. This processor is accompanied by 2 Gb of ram and 32 Gb of internal storage. Along with the HDMI 2.0 output, the MeLe PCG02U has a Wifi connection, an ethernet port, an output for microsd cards and a USB port. In addition, MeLe PCG02U has an antenna to improve the wireless reception of the device.
The device has priced at $ 70, a price that does not include accessories or monitor. Something that must be taken into account when buying equipment such as sticks-pc. MeLe PCG02U comes equipped with Ubuntu 14.04, an old version of Ubuntu LTS that can be updated although many recommend using Ian Morrison's version, a version optimized for this type of device.
MeLe PCG02U has up to Ubuntu's flagship color
Stickspcs like MeLe PCG02U are quite popular with Ubuntu. Along with this device we find similar models such as the last one launched by Intel or this one from MeLe. Devices that are ideal for certain tasks such as office automation or web browsing. What's more, I think a device like MeLe PCG02U with 2 Gb of ram is ideal. for many common tasks that can be done on desktopsTo do this, you just have to change the desktop and use lighter applications.
I personally believe that the stickspc are an ideal alternative for people who do not want a very powerful equipment and they want to spend little money. In this regard, MeLe PCG02U offers an interesting solution that goes through Ubuntu LTS, although surely more than one will continue to opt for traditional desktop computers, equipment a little more powerful than MeLe PCG02U Do not you think?
I see it more as a media center ...
