The Atom processor is a pretty nifty little thing. It draws very little power, it doesn’t require much cooling – this allows PC creators to put them in just about anything. And, “anything” now includes a toy Ferrari and a vase.
These two computers sport nettop stats, and it’s expected that the Ferarri enclosed machine is being aimed at kids, while the Vase case is for those that just want to hide their machine amongst their pottery.
No word yet on price or availability, but it’s expected that these are simply meant as proof of concept.

Any word on a timeframe when we can purchase atom CPUs and mobos to cram in our own bric-a-brac?

Oh cool!! Perhaps we'll see more options and availability soon. I've always enjoyed building things, and have build models since I was 11, so this could be very cool.
