interesting. so with the zotac I would need a HDD. anything else? does it come with windows 7 or is that a seperate purchase too? -- nm - sycor Jul 27, 09:34 6
- From the looks of it, a HDD and Windows 7. If you're connecting it to your TV you don't need a monitor but you'll want - oblique Jul 27, 09:36 5
  - I should note that it doesn't appear to have a DVD drive built in so you'll need an external - oblique Jul 27, 09:39 4
    - hmmm at that point I may as well have bought a whole mini tower PC. lol -- nm - sycor Jul 27, 09:40 3
      - and the DVD drive is entirely optional. With USB sticks you don't really need it anymore unless you want to use it as a DVD or Bluray player - oblique Jul 27, 09:44 1
        
        so the zotac+windows+HDD+remote is about $475. -- nm - sycor Jul 27, 09:50
