It looks like there is only VGA out, so you need to think of a way of
connecting to a TV. Also, if the onboard video is anything like the
Shuttles, then it will probably not be enough for full DVD payback.
Another problem I had with the Shuttles was the noise so beware of
that for living room use. As for price, it is comparable with others,
but the front facia looks pretty good with that big lcd display.
