(...) The SV24 was designed with the OEM/System integrator in mind; it combines many features that are usually found integrated on high end OEM computers, IE Firewire. The case is very attractive being made out of all aluminum with frontal USB and audio ports. Coupled with a VIA C3 processor you can have an ultra quiet and ultra cool PC system capable of running with minimal fans. If the C3 doesn’t offer the power you need, then you can couple the SV24 with a Pentium 3 1 GHz and give the onboard graphics a slight boost. Whether you are an OEM/system integrator or just a PC enthusiast, the SV24 barebones is definitely worth a look. Thanks to the all aluminum case, the SV24 comes out very light and is fit for LAN parties. (...) If you aren’t into LAN parties, there are other uses for the SV24. (...) entertainment center. The SV24 would make a great MP3 player on the road or in the house. 
From an OEM/System integrator standpoint, the SV24 would save them a ton of money since it has everything integrated onboard, thus saving costs for add-in cards. (...) With 2 onboard Firewire ports, the expansion capabilities are endless. If you're in an office environment, you can buy a few external 100GB Firewire HD's and daisy chain up to 32 of them and use the SV24 as a file/storage server. Just imagine 32 of these in your office.
To sum things up, we liked the SV24 a lot; it (...) offers an abundance of features. We highly suggest the SV24 if you’re looking for a new toy or are an OEM/System Integrator. In the past year we’ve been very impressed with Shuttle Products and the SV24 is another product to add to the list.

Sexy Little Ultimate Gadget. It looks like an external CD tower, and you couldn't be blamed for thinking it is, given it's size. It is in fact, an entire PC. (...) The wealth of on-board features supplied with the mobo gives this machine a great deal of flexibility. Kitted with a DVD drive and IrDA, this little box is a perfect replacement for a DVD unit. (...) Excellent for parties (...) This thing also has server potential. It's small, portable and reasonably powerful. Perfect for a home file/web sharing setup. (...) You get the case, the mobo, the PSU, the IDE cables and a low-profile CPU cooler. For around £220, that's not bad at all.

Er macht sich überall sehr gut, wo nicht viel Platz, oder ein hübsches Gehäuse gefragt ist. Auch als kleinen WEB/Mailserver könnte ich mir einen entsprechend ausgestattenen SV24 sehr gut vorstellen.

Entgegen unseren - wie immer - pessimistischen Erwartungen funktionierte alles auf Anhieb, und auch die Inbetriebnahme des Firewire Ports und des TV-Out's war kein Problem. Die Arbeitsperformance ist recht gut (...) Dank des ziemlich guten TV-Out's kommen DVD Filme in sehr guter Qualität beim Fernseher an (...)

Not bigger than an external SCSI case, but a full-featured system with good design. (...) Can be used as small Web/Mailserver.
