So nice piece of hardware, but i can imagine the "nice" price right now.

Aquinus · Feb 6, 2013, 11:05 AM

Two ethernet ports and it could make for an interesting gateway.

Frick · Feb 6, 2013, 11:18 AM

Oh yes please. One for me and one for me parents.

Why not the E2-2000?

AthlonX2 · Feb 6, 2013, 02:52 PM

Zotac has used the E2-1800 in 3 ZBOX units already, why would they invest in another APU for 50Mhz?

Invest?

E2-2000 is a replacement for E2-1800...

It's still an investment to switch APUs. It just good business to use all of your old stock before buying into a new unit.
