Strengths: The Shuttle XPC is very stylish, it's small size makes it very functional when it comes to a desk with a limited amount of real estate.
Weakness: If your looking for a super-fast hardcore system, this isn't it.
This works great as a everyday PC you can give your non-geek significant other, cause all she'll do is play Sims on it :) It's flexible motherboard desgin makes it a great budget system that allows you to start off with a slower Celeron processor and upgrade later to a faster P4.
