Apple TV dissected, photographed, hacked
Seeing how secretive Apple is about the hardware that powers its products, half the fun of a new Apple product is always ripping it open and figuring out what makes it tick. The Future Shock blog gets this honors this time around, by undressing the newly-released Apple TV and posting photos of its innards. So what exactly is inside this thing? As previously known, it's running on an Intel CPU (a derivative of the Pentium M) and also sports Nvidia graphics, a Fujitsu laptop drive and a Broadcom chip to handle WiFi. There are some initial reports that replacing the device's paltry 40GB of storage is a snap and one enterprising hacker claims to have already hacked the thing to get it to play files encoded using un-supported formats. From the look of it, I'd say we're going to see lots of useful mods sooner rather than later.
For the circuit board smut that you so desperately need:
