Introduction

VidaBox, a company specializing in Media Center PCs (Aka HTPC), goes after the college crowd with their RoomMate Media Center PC, a system with a tiny footprint and a nice presentation. The VidaBox RoomMate starts at $1,549 and comes in two colors, white and black. VidaBox claims the RoomMate has essentially all of the same power features of its larger siblings, but of course in a smaller size.
