I've been searching for a long time. Anyways, I'm ready to buy the hardware necessary for this amazing piece of software. My question is, should I buy something like this?

Finally, I want to know if that pre-built HTPC would be more than enough for MediaPortal to run on? My main concern is performance with viewing videos, and going through the menus on MediaPortal, and I do not want ANY sort of lag, or slow down what's so ever!
