The Efika MX has arrived!
Got my Efika MX from Genesi today! I took a few pictures, although mine aren’t that high quality, my roommate was out so I couldn’t use his digital camera. Anyway – here we go
First up, is the FedEx box –

Next we see the box that it comes in:

And we open that box and we start to get giddy…

And we pull everything out, and take a picture of the contents:

And the back of the Efika (and I do apologize, this is very blurry for some reason):

And a small comparison, the Efika MX sitting on top of my Boondock Saints DVD case (awesome movie, go rent and watch it now…), also in the picture, the staple of my diet – Mt. Dew.

Can’t wait to get started, unfortunately, I’m waiting on my Newegg shipment of http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882021059 ( Rosewill – HDMI to DVI Cable (24+1) – 6 FEET – Retail ) to arrive so that I can have some video, since I don’t have any hdmi cables lying around.
I do also have the dmesg,free, and cpuinfo posted.
It comes with Ubuntu minimal installed, however, I intend to install Gentoo on it.
I really must say, this is definitely a nice looking machine, a LOT smaller than I expected it to be – I was thinking it was a lot bigger than it actually is.
