It's not fair, the author of the Onkyo review used my trickle down tech intro.

I think it's great that Mac's are slowly becoming more adopted as HTPCs. I don't think they'll ever truly take off strictly due to the lack of DIY ability, and the high cost.

They have very similar thoughts as we do. Sexy.. Sexy.. Sexy.. but expensive and the trackpad is a touch annoying. From the […]
Read moreSoo? As the title hints at.. What games do you play? I remember grinding out many of a level on WOW early on in my addiction. Of course, as my addiction grew, the relaxed nature of playing just wasn't cutting. I played a few other games but never really got into the gaming end of things after that. I suppose […]

It actually has a nice clean look to it, although there are a few other cases I would consider before purchasing this one. I prefer the horizontal cases rather then cube style cases.
