Shuttle KPC K45 Barebones System Reviewed
TheTechLounge published a Shuttle KPC K45 Barebones System review.

Bird Droppings on Space Shuttle Discovery

Contour ShuttlePRO V.2 USB Input Device Review
EnvyNews writes:
A USB input device which facilitates digital video editing, digital content manipulation, and graphic-arts applications through the use of 15 buttons which can be remapped and a jog/Shuttle wheel. PC/Mac compatible.
