A tiny desktop computer that evokes the warmth of a lazy weekend morning with coffee and a newspaper was the vision for Athena. Particularly designed for the Japanese market, where space is at a premium, it was designed to be viewed from all angles, from the back aluminum pedestal for cables to the front's draped and textured surface.
