News Shuttle could be bought out?

Both Acer and ECS have been tipped to have an interest in SFF maker, Shuttle, as rumours hit the market in Taiwan.

 

My money would be on Acer, but tbh neither company would have any interest in us lot (being a minority). Hopefully they wont try and tottaly integrate Shuttle into Acer, so they can just churn out cheap SFF media and office computers.

 

Not entirely surprising, though - it's been a while since Shuttle produced anything as ground-breaking as the first SFF cases, and other companies are doing SFF just as good as Shuttle. No wonder they're feeling a little cash-strapped.
