Gigabyte BRIX Projector (BXPi3-4010) - $258 after MIR

Amazon has an amazing price right now on this really cool mini desktop PC. This one has a DLP projector (albeit low resolution at 864x480) built right in, which is usable as a standalone projector or as a display for the computer. The list price is $579 (most places, including Newegg.com, are selling it for over $500), but Amazon has it on sale at the moment for $308 ($271 off list)! I don't know how long this price will last.

Specs:


  • CPU: 1.7GHz Core i3-4010U Haswell
  • Chipset: Z87
  • RAM: 2 x SO-DIMM DDR3L (1.35V) slots, max. 16GB
  • LAN: Realtek RTL8111G Gigabit ethernet
  • Audio: Realtek ALC269
  • Graphics: Intel HD4400
  • Expansion Slots: 1 x mSATA, 1 x half size MiniPCIe, occupied by AzureWave AW-NB114H 802.11n/Bluetooth 4.0 combo card (not supported in Mac OSX AFAIK)
  • Ports: 1 x HDMI (max. res. 4096x2160), 1 x Mini DisplayPort max. res. 3084x2160), 4 x USB 3.0, 1 x headphone w/SPDIF
  • Power Supply: External DC 19V/3.42A
  • Projector: DLP 864x480 (16:9 aspect ratio) w/LED backlight
  • Projector Input: PC display (Intel HD4400) or Mini HDMI

EDIT: WOW! I just discovered there's a $50 MIR available on this item - bringing it down to $258!

Yeah but are the HD 4400 graphics supported?

I was able to get the HD 4400 graphics working, but only with an external monitor; I never got the projector to work with Mac OS X, which was the whole point of it. So I returned it and got an Intel NUC.
