One of the fastest growing segments of the PC industry today, is the Home Theater PC (HTPC). It is seeing a lot of innovation from hardware manufacturers themselves, in the form of scaled down inexpensive products such as Nvidia’s PureVideo 2 based range of cards like the 8500 GT. In addition to this, many independent companies have sprung that take existing products and mesh them together to try and capture a section of this rapidly growing market. One such firm is FUZE Media Systems, which has just unveiled their first media computer "that promises to address the problems associated with regular home media systems - disparate devices, multiple remotes, complex and confusing interfaces, unreliability, and the lack of true whole-home capability".
Their system is based on a server client concept and with the aid of a primary media server will allow video clients and audio clients that interface with the media server to enjoy a good multimedia experience. For this the media server has been designed with a very beefy specification. The “FuzeBox” as it is called features Intel Core 2 Quad 6600 processor, Nvidia 7600 GT/GS graphics, 4GB RAM, 1.5TB storage, TV Tuner, HDMI, VGA, and Gigabit LAN.
“From a technology standpoint, we’re delivering the industry’s most robust media management system,” said Michael D’Addio, FUZE Chief Executive Officer. “But, at the end of the day, what we’re really delivering is ease-of-use in an elegant design. We designed our solution with the average consumer in mind - not highly skilled technologists. Within seconds of picking up a FUZE remote, the average person will be able to watch and record shows throughout the home, instantly play music anywhere, or pull up a picture slideshow of their favorite memories. In this way, our system will help to sell itself.”
