I caught that article as well. With this philosophy, I am surprised they stopped at mid-tower. This is so backward. The whole thing can fit in a shoebox, but we're going to put it in a refrigerator so Johnny Methlab will know he's getting his money's worth.

Logic tells me that the people buying these PC's have LESS living space than someone willing to spend MORE MONEY on a Small Form Factor system.
