Looking to pick up a new box. I reall like the ND22 and was looking for a replacement for that box with a little more CPU.
I like the form factor and reliablity of the ZBOX's
I'm a little worried about the Intel HD3000 integrated graphics. Would they be enough to handle everything without hiccups?
I'll quickly post the specs, Any opinions would be great.
Thanks!

I'm also very interested in the ID82, have been checking periodically on zotac site but still haven't seen it avail yet, wonder how much is the MSRP? I also have a ND22 and would like to update to i3 to get some more cpu power on playing some 720ps rmvb....
I like to build my own boxes but for small htpc the zboxes are just a lot cleaner internally than what I could built myselves so I've several zboxes at home for xbmc.

sintax,
Thanks for the heads-up.... wonder how much mark-up that one on ebay is, without ram/hd that's not exactly cheap.

dont expect it to be cheap.
the ID82 will be the most powerful zbox ever made.
