Specifications

Hivizone, the leading supplier of the Skyworth 1050p progressive dvd player, offers two grades of turn-key HTPCs: Models VZ-HTPC01 and VZ-HTPC02.  Both are similarly configured with the exception of a faster cpu, more memory, a different video card, and more disk space for the 02 system.   I have the VZ-HTPC01 system with the optional Zoltrix TV capture card.
