I am showing KolibriOS running on eBox-3350MX.

The eBox-3350MX is the smallest and cheapest x86 PC currently available on the market. It weighs just 270 gram and costs less than 100$ in big quantities. It contains an i586-MMX compatible CPU running at 1GHz, 512MB DDR2 RAM, runs from 5V DC power supply and consumes just around 5Watt.

KolibriOS is a freeware open-source operating system for x86-compatible computers. It is written mostly in Assembly and requires just 8MB RAM and around 1MB disk space to run.

The eBox looks like an affordable PC at only $100 for doing office work, web browsing, watching video, listening to music, casual games like solitaire, and running a file or print server. Wow, can't believe the PC only uses about 5W of power that is less then most small regular lightbulbs found on older Christmas lights made of glass. The PC also seems pretty speedy in this video.

The PC also has a lot of features like SD card, audio, video, USB port, networking, and other features for such a small light PC. I like that it is silent and fanless, so there is no noise.

The PC also seems pretty easy for the average user to set up by plugging in the keyboard, mouse, speaker, monitor, SD card, and speakers.

It is cool the KolibriOS operating system is free, and only uses 1MB of space on a storage drive which is about the size of a high resolution JPEG image file.
 
there is too much tech out there to keep up with it all >_
