Mini PCs are the way ahead and WPG in partnership with Intel has recently launched its NuPC. While the original Nuc launched by Intel a while back just had the motherboard and processor, WPG has just added OS, RAM and storage to the device without changing the original design and configuration to make it market ready. Here is a first look at the WPG NuPC.

Since these mini PCs are aimed mainly at B2B customers, the configurations are highly customizable. As you can see here, the front has 1 USB 3.0 port and 1 USB 2.0 port.
