Alternatives to the new Mac mini?

I need help, I'm trying to find a small PC (similar to Mac Mini) but with more power, specially better graphics.

Any alternative?

Check out the Dell Zino or the Shuttle X350 Ion.

Spec wise i think the Zino is a closer match as it has a quad core processor and it also offer blue ray which i like for under $700.
I am not familiar with the Shuttle but it does have a nice design but doesn't seem to offer quad core processors but has a good price.

In case you haven't already seen this: The bigger non-server Mac Mini actually got dedicated graphics in the Mid 2011 update (AMD Radeon HD 6630M graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR5 memory).

No idea how this compares to peter's suggestions though, or if it was already reviewed/benchmarked somewhere.
