Today, we live in a post-modern, multi-cultural world where traditional norms have been turned upside down. Half-Cantonese, with an Italian name and heavy Welsh accent? Unlikely to even turn heads. So what's the problem when something called a box is actually a sphere?Nothing really. Despite the name of Zotac's seeming never-ending run of ZBox mini computers, they're probably better known for selling small PCs than for straight edges. The company has a fairly hefty line-up of different models, and while the earlier designs borrowed their looks from the tried-and-tested net-top form factor, Zotac has shown that it's not afraid to experiment.We've had horizontal models, and the ZBox Nano as well, which shrinks its dimensions down to rival those of Intel's tiny NUC mini computer. So it's not too hard to see why they've come up with the ZBox Sphere mini PC, which is almost (but not quite) shaped like an orb. While the top is a perfect sphere, the base is flat, in order for it to sit flat on a desk or under the television, with the ports conveniently positioned on another flat section at the rear.Tech specPowering the ZBox Sphere is a dual-core Intel Core i5-4200U processor, an Intel HD4400 integrated GPU, and 4GB of DDR3 memory, with another memory slot for expansion if you want. This specification roughly matches mid-range Ultrabooks.
