Da ingen har svaret synes jeg et link her er på sin plads; Det
tyder på at EN1200E gør god fyldest som diskløs server men ikke
som workstation med krav om højkvalitets-video.

CONCLUSIONS

If low noise and power efficiency are your primary requirements
and you're willing to sacrifice a little performance, VIA's EPIA
EN12000E can fit the bill quite nicely. Although you're almost
certain to notice some difference in speed, I was shocked at how
little functionality was lost by the much slower processor....

Best of all, the EPIA can be run in a completely fanless system
without overheating....

It also cannot handle HD video properly ? at least not when it is
encoded in Windows Media format....

The system also seemed a little unstable at times, as the frequent
system freezes with Photoshop will attest. The odd behavior when
switching display types was also a little disconcerting....

It would do well as a low-end HTPC or as a browser portal.
However, for a general purpose PC where the performance
requirements are unpredictable, the EPIA is almost certain to run
into the occasional task where a little more oomph would be
appreciated.
