Ahanix D5 Media Center Enclosure

VL writes "Ahanix has delivered an enclosure that gives you everything you would desire in an HTPC. The versatility of using MicroATX or Standard ATX motherboards, the look and feel of high end audio/video equipment and a VFD information center that gives the added information of what is playing. It comes at a hefty price tag mind you, but in this particular situation, you get what you pay for." Now that's what I'm talking about. Anybody know of any other commercially available cases as well suited to putting in a stereo system?

    I can see a benefit. Imagine archiving your DVD library on your PC so it's all available at all times without leaving the couch? That would be pretty cool.

    And it can function like a TiVo/ReplayTV, but without the annoying monthly fee.

    And, besides, it's a geeky thing to do.
