Veris Fusion is the name of Antec's line of cases designed for HTPCs, also known as Media Center PCs, named after Microsoft's Media Center operating system. HTPC is short for Home Theater Personal Computer and it is a fast expanding market, at least here in Europe. An HTPC case can have many appearances, but since HTPCs are used for home entertainment playing videos, music and presenting pictures, most of them are lying down.
The biggest difference is of course that this is not a case that will be seated on top of your desk, but among your home theater electronics. Therefore most HTPC cases also look a bit like it belongs there, with traits similar to those of a receiver or DVD-player. HTPC enthusiasts are usually picky about the looks of their equipment, and by that I foremost mean their electronics, and that includes the HTPC nowadays.
An HTPC has to be clean and stylish, with many outputs for audio and video. The latter is of course largely reliant on the hardware you put in there, but there are still a certain amount of connectors that the case should have. Antec Veris MicroFusion 350 Remote is the very latest microATX HTPC case from Antec. It is an updated version of Veris MicroFusion 350, now with a Remote.
Let's look at the specifications.
