With the increasing amount of in-house produced video coming out of VIA these days, take a look at the latest to come off the production line. Put together by my workmate, Claire, it’s the introduction to a series on Ultra Mobile Devices (UMDs) that will cater to those of us who don’t know much about these new computers. Entitled ‘UMDs for Dumplings’, through a series of short videos Claire will take a look at these small form PCs and ask some of her colleagues if they can help her shed some light on them.

VIA’s just announced an innovative new product, which, though not geared for the green PC space, has some very green qualities.
