I think from a pure cost point of view, the Acer is cheaper since it comes with a hdd, memory, wireless keyboard/mouse, and WIN7 for $340. I think the ZOTAC costs about this much for a barebones system. Add in a HDD/SSD, memory, and WIN7 and the price would be more than $500. Dont get me wrong, I am not an Acer fanboy or a ZOTAC hater. I just want to understand if the ZOTAC is worth the extra money. I am in the market for another HTPC so I want to make the best decision possible.I'd say it's time to move away from Atom-based HTPCs and go with something like this instead.
