 PCtheater™ Set-top Computer Expands Product Line and Lowers Price

HTX Technology today announces major price reductions for its PCtheater™ product line. In addition, PCtheater™ has a new Multimedia system version to further reduce the cost. This new lower cost version does not include the home automation components and software, but does include all the multimedia features that are far beyond anything you could purchase on a standard PC.

The PCtheater™ Multimedia System pricing starts at $1299.95 with Home Automation version at $1999.95. "It took a lot of work to break that $2000 mark, but well worth the effort," said Jay Cullimore VP. "The PCtheater™ set-top computer, unlike a standard PC, is designed for viewing on the TV, so all text and navigation controls are readable from any source, and the case design looks good next to the TV or stereo"

Standard PC’s that include a DVD player, are intended to be viewed with a monitor, and means the DVD player controls will not be displayed on the TV screen, where you need them.

The PCtheater’s™ TV-Navigator™ control panel has been completely re-designed for easier viewing and control of all the connected components.

In addition, the PCtheater™ now includes a TV Tuner, Digital VCR with Instant Replay and MP3 Jukebox features. Record your favorite programs and never miss that football replay again! Say goodbye to tapes finally!
