With extra inputs and outputs, dual zone talk back and more, the MaxPix is a good choice if you think your customer may want more features in future like external HD storage.
Equipped with a high-end built in PSU rather than an external one and an industry standard rack mountable 19" case, the MaxPix is a good choice for server room installations.
