XYZComputing has published an article stating this year would be the year of the HTPC. I’m not exactly sure if that’s necessarily the case but it’s definitely true that many more vendors are recognizing the trend of bringing the PC to the living room. There are many more case manufacturers developing HTPC cases than ever before which is great news for the HTPC enthusiast. However, it’s still not clear whether the PC will take over the functions of the standalone DVR, DVD, and CD player in the home. It’s still not acceptable to have your system crash on you while you’re watching the last episode of the Apprentice is it? In any case, aside from debating the notion of the year of the HTPC, XYZ Computing does compile a nice picture list of HTPC cases at this year’s CES.
