Bit-Tech: Origen X15e HTPC Case Reviewed
Posted by Jeremy Charette in "HARDWARE" @ 04:00 PM
"The LCD is a 7" model which has a maximum resolution of 1024x768, although it has a widescreen 15:9 ratio. This obviously doesn't jam, and means that the picture ends up looking a little stretched, although a good graphics card driver will go some way to compensating for this. The kicker is that it's a touch screen, meaning that you can control the desktop or Media Center directly."
This is an expensive case, but if you want only the best, it looks like a good choice. The built-in LCD touch screen on the front panel is what really sets it apart (even if it is somewhat useless). I could see this parked on the coffee table next to the couch, with a silent cooling system, using the touch screen to control the action on a wall mounted flat panel display across the living room. If you feel the need to be different (and have money to burn), this might be right up your alley.
