The Kewbe is the nicest computer ever sold IMO. But it's frickin' huge compared to the Mac mini. See here:

Better designed? In coming closer to matching the needs of the target audience, the Mac mini, hands down.
The Cube was an overpriced bauble that really only appealed almost exclus…

No need for a partition. You can do this already with the hard-drive based iPods though I never heard of a flash being bootable. Trouble is it's good for an emergency boot but for …
