    Now THIS is a proper home theatre PC



    Looks like they may have done everything right with this one. The shuttles came close, but they still stick the optical out on the front, and the optical in on the back. This box throws in the fancy display on the front as well. Apparently, they're doing an Athlon version too. I want one!

    That's one nice looking mini-PC! If I had the cash to build an HTPC I would pick up this box in a heartbeat. Well done for MSI.
