Intel's compact computer-on-a-stick is now available for pre-order and will be shipping later this month. Announced back at CES, the Intel Compute Stick is essentially a computer on a USB stick. All that's required is a monitor with HDMI, some peripherals and you're good to go.

Priced at $149.99 ($110 with Linux) on Newegg, Amazon and a handful of other retailers, the device packs 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. As well as the HDMI connection there's also a microSD card slot (for increased storage), a regular USB port, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a microUSB port to will power the PC and runs Windows 8.1.

It's a perfect solution for those who require a PC that can be carried around in their pocket.
