The Origen AE S10V may be a bit more expensive than other such enclosures with a similar feature set, but as is the case with the S21T, you will not find any HTPC chassis with a better build quality anywhere else. It is just as compact as a video recorder but can fit a normal power supply and mATX mainboard. Simply place a low profile, HDMI capable graphic card inside this case and you will have the perfect HTPC. Origen AE has decided to keep things simple and offers all the needed functions for a chassis in your living room. The Philips MCE remote is a beauty and works incredibly well with the custom made VFD and IR combination of the chassis. All the needed information is shown on the display, including a dimm, standby date & time setting. This is really all you need, as you would never sit down in front of the VFD to read news headlines or wait to see what the weather is like. The slot loading drive bay is painless as well, as Origen AE has decided to go with the most common setup for such slim line drives and if you are not using the optical drive, simply close the door and enjoy a beautiful looking HTPC while watching you favorite clips or listening to that favorite song of yours.
I am hard pressed to give this case anything less than a 10, with the only real reason being the fact that you get a remote, but no wireless keyboard. If Origen AE manages to include an IR based input device and that custom quiet cooler right out of the box (without raising the price to much), then there is really nothing else to say besides "this is the HTPC case to be had right now - period".
