Hey, we all knew good and well
VidaBox was sparing no luxury when crafting the CableCARD-ready, HD DVD / Blu-ray supporting HTPC it affectionately dubs the
Magnum, but even the well prepared may be a tad taken aback by the price. While the vendor's website still requests that you swallow a chill pill and calmly call for any
pricing inquiries, AudioJunkies has apparently done us all the favor. Wrapped up in what appears to be OrigenAE's oh-so-sexy
aluminum chassis, the VidaBox Magnum reportedly
starts at a dollar under eight grand, and while we're sure the base configuration is more than plenty, why not throw in an extra stick of RAM and a few terabytes of HDD space to ensure your next media PC costs more than a new Kia Rio?

That's just insane. $8,000 for a few hard drives and a 8600GTS? The 12" screen is useless. Oh, didn't you see that storage is UP TO 9TB? Probably starts at 500 MB and then the price skyrockets. Sorry VidaBox, I can build the same thing for thousands less. Even put it in a nice package too, not a square aluminum box..
