What would the case cost in a store?

I would guess about 10-15% higher than a comparable HTPC made of plastic.

I designed it to be easily mass produced starting with the Silverstone aluminum chassis.

Parts, materials and software cost between $1,600-1,700 if you wanted to build your own.

Heh! you're in America... there's bound to be laws against defiling objects of beauty in some state or other... and against your will and without your knowledge...

Sue the capitalist bastards!!!

May the ignorant infidels who commited this heinous crime have their bits infected with a thousand camel dung flies!!!!!

Love to all

lmao

Honestly, it is probably one of the reasons the contest was closed to individuals. No way a company would risk insulting the great Intel.

They were genuinely surprised that I complained.
