[QUOTE="craigbeat, post: 827627, member: 50797"] I got an ePC mini PC (basically the same as those ACER ones) and use that as a 1080p client. It cost about £120 on eBuyer, but they don't have any in stock now. As long as you get something that has ION or equivalent, I'm sure it will be fine. One thing I would say is that I had to put XP on mine, as under Win7, it didn't do 1080p so well in Mediaportal (worked fine in Win7 MCE though). Other hidden costs to think about - remote control + receiver, external CD-ROM (if you need such a thing). Other than that, yes, it's a very good way to do it. [/QUOTE]
