Sotec's PC Station BJ slim Conroe media center

Japan's Sotec just threw down a couple of Core 2 Duo towers meant for the motherland. The most interesting of the two is the Windows XP Media Center Edition PC Station BJ (pictured) which bundles a 19-inch 1440x900 (WXGA+) display with that 3.7-inch slim (though not that slim) tower sporting Intel's 1.86GHz E6300 Core 2 Duo proc and 945G Express graphics, a 320GB disk and up to 2GB DDR2 memory, 7-in-1 memory card reader, dual-layer DVD multi-drive, 7.1ch audio, and a healthy dose of PCI, USB 2.0, and other in/outs. Not a bad piece of kit for ¥129,800 or about $1,093. Yeah, they also announced the minimalistic, PC Station PX chub of an old school tower. But other than starting at about ¥89,800 or $756 for a taste of Merom Conroe, it's just what you'd expect. Check it after the break, if you must.

E6XXX is Conroe, not Merom.
Just stating it by the way. (Yes, I'm picky)
